Beijing: With obesity on the rise across China, doctors and nutritionists have created a healthy treatment path and they released China’s first medical guideline to help overweight people get lighter.
The guideline, which comes as obesity rises sharply nationwide, covers the principles and methods that should be adopted to help people lose weight and keep it off. It was developed over nearly a year through the collective efforts of nearly 100 doctors and nutritionists across the country, according to the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care.
