had stepped as moscow simply time eastwood to new energy partners. in february, the block revived this restrictions, coughing field at $45.00 and other products like diesel at a $100.00. and we heard from german opposition, politician ralph nemaia. he says that he was clearly suffering right now from the sanctions. backlash have a listen or other disturbance for germany and all the nations that domain and this because of the price because they do not get the deliveries in the house. but it's because you have to say that the sanctions in place against russian oil products in the rest of the market and just uh, the increasing the price on these products united states do have their own interest and they always impose that on the so called allies i don't see that we are add ons to the united states. we are out of meso states because they still can

dictate to us what we have to do. it cannot make lee and military to buy. so here we have the question of separate entity. at the moment, i must say germany does not look like being a sovereign states at all. i just a quick side note for you here that no one is talking about, you know, the euro and recent years used to account for nearly 40 percent of global international trade transactions. but now, the euro is barely at 12, if not, 13 percent, and know 40 isn't 12. so is your new use here or not? you thought you, the rest of the box on the museums are important for preserving our history so that it is a loss to future generations. but our physical museums, placing themselves

a relic of the past. this is one of the best museums in the world that haven't touched in saint petersburg. how rusty is the director here and i bet he has met the there is a fine line between body positivity and medical truth. many people just don't want to hear as well saturating is cool. and now there is a growing movement of body positivity coming out to help people embrace their natural sizes. a debate has emerged if it has lower the lives of major risks that are linked with having excess weight. the main message here is not about that versus then. but focusing on lowering the risks for heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic diseases. i'm cause d i and you're watching the cost of everything we're today. we're going to be examining the cost and dangers of obese in

the world. obesity federation has projected that the cost of obesity will store with over half of the world's population the over weight or obese by 2035. the reported economic impact of a high b m. i could read $4.00 trillion dollars annually, which is roughly 3 percent of global gdp or about the same impact as club what's called the 19. no country has ever seen a decline in obese. the prevalence says 1975, which means that more adolescence enter adulthood with the established risk factors for chronic disease. the biggest cost increases are projected for low and middle income countries were obesity. rates are growing. the fastest obesity is projected to increase 4 fold by 2060 in high income areas and 12 times in lower resource settings. the obesity is detrimental to health increasing the risk of stroke heart

attacks, diabetes, to depression and higher cluster rates. diabetes in particular effects $21000000.00 americans, which push up the bill. a heart attack costs $44000.00 a stroke cost $40200.00 an end state 10 need diseases cost. $37000.00 even amputating a tow, which is what happens to untreated diabetics will cost $15000.00. and it's not just a vanity thing. bill b's is expensive. the national cost of obesity is a $122000000000.00 per year, mostly in health care costs. this means that per year, the cost of obesity for a man is about $2646.00. and adding the value of last life will increase it to $6519.00. for a woman, the individual cost of obesity amounts to about $4879.00. so where

does that cost come from? it's more than just medical expenses. annually obese women who earn over $30000.00 per year will make almost $2000.00 less per year. then the women of healthy weight, obese man, on the other hand, will only lose about $75.00 annually. the massive monetary distinction between the 2 o b scripts show that women are penalized harder than men for being obese. another study focusing on us, canada, britain, and denmark showed that women with obesity take a 10 percent income hit compared to normal b m. i women obese employees tend to use more sick days than others with a healthy, via my, and they can expect to have a harder time being hired and going up for promotions. the employee productivity is also correlated to obesity. those who are bees have self reported limitations than

others, including the amount of work that can be performed each day. the average cost and reduced productivity per year, amounts to over 350 dollars each year. the other higher costs for obese people include higher insurance premiums for medicare, higher gasoline use, higher disability pension insurance, and even having to purchase extra seats on a flight heavy people's life insurance payments are 2 to 4 times as large. and now with this in mind, let's bring in dr. kelly roadless, psychologist and eating disorder specialist. sure, thank you so much for having me. now. what is the biggest cause of obesity? is it because there's just too much food and too many calories everywhere? or is it because we have such a sedentary lifestyle? these is well, i mean, i think that's a really interesting question. um, as a clinical psychologist who specializes in the treatment of eating disorders, i come from a different perspective when it comes to obesity. in general, i don't actually see obesity as

a primary diagnosis for anyone. i see obesity as a symptom of a larger issue. and so i think if, if i'm going to answer it in terms of what i know how most people view obesity, what i would say is, i think there are a lot of i'm, i'm diagnosed mental health conditions that actually influence the way we feed ourselves. and because they're on diagnosed, people are struggling and the only thing that people are talking about is the obvious sign of a weight gain. but i don't actually see obesity as a primary medical condition. i usually i think that there's some bigger issues. typically, mental health issues going on that impact the way a person pizza themselves. and how prevalent is obesity rates amongst kids today. i mean, i think it depends on what you're looking at. i would say that there are some, you know, research studies that are saying that the obesity is such a big problem and children that you know, i of our life expectancy as a whole has lowered and that it's

a direct result of obesity. there are other numbers that suggest it's like, you know, 3040 percent of all kids are struggling with that. again, like i said, i, and that those numbers missed the point and aren't really focusing on the underlying issues and are treating obesity as a medical condition rather than a symptom of something else. and now how can we tackle this problem of abuse when it seems like most people are too afraid to even talk about it, arguing that it is anti body positivity? well, i think that's a really important question because again, my id and my belief and what the research really shows us is that obesity is not the real problem. but that obesity might be a symptom of a problem. and the sign that the idea of obesity might not even exist for some people, right? if we look at the way we even determine what obesity is, that's the from and by the b m. i. and there's been a lot of research that shows that the be in mind was not developed as

a way of determining health that it was developed by a statistician that had no background in health. and we actually have more um, other tools to help us identify someone's health issues that have nothing to do with the my so be my has been shown in, you know, by research standards to have some races under paintings and to give people the idea that they are healthy or unhealthy when it's really not based on health at all . so if we remove the idea of the mind from the table, then that forces us to look at people on an individual basis and look at who they are as a person and look at their health, different health, uh, metabolic factors, instead of just saying, oh, if you are this number on a scale, and this is your height. we're going to assume that you lack health. and the reason why this is important is because when we look at are we used to be in my as a measure of how there are people that get over diagnosed. and people that get under diagnose, for example, there are, there are a quarter of normal weight people have metabolic abnormalities,

which means people that are considered normal weight or underway have high blood pressure. high blood should there and cyclist draw. but if you're not looking at their numbers and you're only looking at their weight, those conditions could get missed. further testing might not be asked for because they look like they're in their normal body. likewise, there are, there are folks who are in larger bodies who are, who are being seen as problematic when, if you were to look at their blood work, a quarter of folks who fall under the category of overweight or obese. do not have any medical indicators that their health has been compromised. so when we only use health as a diagnosis, we always wait as a way of district germany who's healthy and who's not. we actually end up hurting our providers. ability to really see people as individuals and give them the help that they need. so i think when we're talking about, and i'm assuming when we talk about obesity,

what we really need to say is we're wanting people to have a better quality of life. we're wanting people to have a healthy lifestyle. i think it's important that we actually look at those factors that determine that and not just focus on weight in and of itself. does g hmo and preservice play a big role in contributing to the obesity epidemic? absolutely, i do think that there's a really big problem with how the food industry has been able to sort of change the way that we feed ourselves without our consent. you know, and in general, the idea of the f, b a was there to protect us from things like this. but unfortunately, it seems like that institution is no longer as protective as it used to be. and you know, the data doesn't lie. when you look at some of the other countries around the world and the different things that they have said are not allowed in their countries but are still allow in our own. the data doesn't lie. a lot of these foods that have been tampered with no longer

a treat our bodies the way we think that they should be treated right. they no longer help our bodies in the way that we are hoping that they will be help. so i do believe that there is a roost to, you know, our foods being tampered with, that absolutely has an impact on our health. but again, i don't believe that it's just about obesity. i believe that it has an impact on a lot of different areas of our life that need just as much attention and that again, if we're worried about health, there are real ways. besides a b, m, i to identify people that are struggling with health issues. now there are countries that do not have access to foods and malnourished kids who are not getting enough calories. so how is that possible when you have a b city and over nutrients and other countries? absolutely, i mean, i think especially when we're talking about children like we have to acknowledge all the different things that go into how a person chooses the food that the apps are there, things like food deserts, yes. like places where, you know, there aren't, there isn't

a lot of access to high quality food. absolutely. could that influence how he person feeds themselves and therefore influence a person's weight? sure, but i do not believe that that is responsible for the vast majority of folks that are struggling. and i think that that is a over simplification of what most people are dealing with who are in larger bodies . i think the other thing to consider is that, um, as humans, we don't all come in one size. we don't all come in one shape. we don't all come with one height and we're fairly comfortable with the idea that our heights are different and that they're determined by genetics and a lot of other forces that are outside of our control. but we don't like to talk about that in terms of weight as well. there is such a thing as people being able to be healthy at every size. so what that really says is that you can't really look at someone and say, oh that because they look a particular way that they must be unhealthy, or it must be because of not having access to good foods. so you've got a group of people who are labeled obesity, right, labeled obese,

and it probably has a lot to do with genetics. and they might have no other metabolic issues, meaning they don't have high blood pressure. they don't have high blood sugar. they don't have, i, let's draw, but they're labeled as problematic just because they are genetically prone to be in a larger body. and then you have folks who have underlying mental health conditions where for example, depression, one of the symptoms of depression is a change and appetite, right? and so you have someone who might have depression, but instead they go to their physician and because their position is more versed in obesity, they'll receive that diagnosis rather than a diagnosis of depression and a referral for therapy. and so, you know, and they all, for whatever reason they can't lose weight and it's like, well, we're not really dealing with the root issue. are there some people who might be carrying more weight in their bodies? one possibly, but i think it takes way more data and support and research to actually parse out who's who. thank you so much for your time, dr. kelly roadless. and when we come back,

many countries and the global cells are seeing an explosion of will be see, because of the rise of transnational food companies looking for growth markets. while in south africa, there's a lack of access to healthy foods that adds to the communities obese. these problems will have more after the break the the

most affordable, cuz it also the business. and you clean the 3 of the daily that was chosen, you know, maybe comes green. we'll just go through this discussion of curriculum for those who are looking for when your stuff functions. russel, dumas matter of the different considering for which of course and yet you throw in the probably and you're still the shorter issue through here that i sent to you yesterday, isaac at the top. so usually i'm looking at the study scripts on the verge of flush to for me to on, on, on the if we can, we can load it. was it just some of the posted sustainable came on because a new way to close or do school culture? was there any don't know which these are i know for the don't know is that you suggested to given me other than the american civil liberties? best opinion pronounced has come over the

in the past 2 decades, asia and the pacific have also experienced rapid growth and modernization, but in parallel, they have also seen a rapid increase in overweight and obese people. it is estimated the $2.00 and $5.00 adults are overweight with malaysia being the most obese country in asia, followed by south korea. pakistan and china in india are reported over 14000000 cases of obesity in children, which is the 2nd highest number of obese children in the world. this is due to the increasing number of hours in front of screens and the rise of inactive hours. in addition, increasingly hectic, routines and growing stress are causing people to consume fast foods which further leads towards obesity. meanwhile, 45 percent of adults living in the u. r. of normal b m. i will 53 percent are considered over weight,

17 percent being obese. the proportion of over weight adults very across the you with the highest chairs being the malta and croatia were 65 percent of adults were considered overweight. meanwhile, the lowest was recorded in italy of 46 percent. france at 47 percent and luxembourg at 48 percent. as such, the weight loss industry has ballooned along with global b a my, as people struggled to shed the extra pounds, the demand for the us weight loss market size was valued at approximately a 135 $1000000000.20 and is expected to reach a $159000000000.00 in 2023. the global weight loss products and services market is expected to grow to 299000000000 in 2023. a survey estimates that americans spend north of $60000000000.00 annually to try to lose weight, trying everything from paying for gym memberships and joining weight loss programs

like jenny craig to pay for meal plans and apps. and then there's a more drastic solutions such as gastric bypass surgeries, which cost $23000.00 a lap band which prevents over eating and shrinks your stomach, which costs $14500.00 and a sleeve gas struck to me where a portion of your stomach is actually removed and replaced by a much smaller sleeve, which is $14900.00. these surgeries are usually for patients who are very overweight and find it more challenging to live a healthier lifestyle. they all operate in the same way in which the stomach size is reduced in order to make it more difficult to eat, the large volume of food that they're used to consuming. in addition to the risk for surgery, patients will also need to take off about 3 weeks of work following the procedure, as well as the cost of medication. other natural ways to lose weight include

exercise and stay active. and while gym membership spike every january from a help your new year's resolution, about 90 percent of all new members typically stop going within the 1st 3 months. up to 67 percent of gym memberships go completely unused. does that sound familiar to anyone? there is also a new medication now for a weight loss like the miracle drug owes them pick hailed by all the celebrities from the car dashes to eli and musk. about a 3rd of people who take o 7. thank for weight loss will lose 10 percent or more of their body weight. and while this drug was originally created to help diabetes, patients control their blood sugar. the side effect of rapid weight loss quickly made it a very hot commodity. so hot that it is now causing problems for the people it was originally intended to help the 07 big is usually not covered by insurance. so only people who can afford to pay $1600.00 a month can take it. if you don't take goes and pick every week,

the wait reportedly comes right back. and for the african perspective we turned in journalist patients, we're go in camera room. so patients, is there a weight loss craze, and cameron among men or women? yes, um. it's actually almost a parts of everyone's lifestyle. now, would these be demand on women? this is so because, um, well 1st of all we have a challenge. we have a challenge, which is that some people move away from beer of the ladies and come to towns to, you know, look for jobs and when they get to draw up the noun, how the access to, you know, time time, which could maybe for me, them x the size, do some stuff that could keep the body shape in. and then you know the best way.

but um, the points now is people have shifted from, you know, just the red lights and sizes we used to have. because our government's in every administrative headquarters and try to settle for some supporting facility, we call that cool the timing camera room. so every region in the country has one, at least. yes. and so in the keys off, let's say you only where am, is situated around multi b. so if you wake up early in the mornings between 5 am and 7 30 am in the mornings, you would find people, you know, struggling to, you know, dog walk and, oh, i'm not, you know, it's a good feet. and do you think that weight loss bags come into the west africa or other parts of africa from the west?

it will be, or i'm a yes i'm in. no. i'll begin from the know the know 1st because um, like i said earlier, mentioned you would have traditional methods which people actually use. yes. and so it had been really very, it was kind of good. it has been problem that it's healthy in the past. so now the only point, well, now it seems a yes is when you leave the role settings where you have most of these things that will pay me to do with the local we and in the city you will have access to, to most of the hips and all of that, so what you have to do is maybe to look at what you have and then in cities, when you talk about towns in cameroon, it's like shapes club, press kindly copying all of what is happening in the western world and applying it to your daily lives time. so in this home,

you will be come on for you to see that they are copying the forward lives. so are these feeds. that's when you now see the dieting co mean you don't have trouble going for the low cost. let's. because the one is always the whites monthly and then um, the physical exercise moving to it's not an advertising style. so exercising. we have a 5, you tional sports birds. you know, all this ones have been, i'm london's, and the coffee, most of what they have out there. and again to the, for the legal sanction being that is western. so it's not us there. so that's why i would say so yes, i didn't know. so it's kind of, you know, it depends on where you find yourself. now, as african countries like yours and other slowly become more affluent, do you think more people will suffer from being over weight and therefore have more

interest in following diets and weight loss fads? mm. well, um the tendency use it's absolutely very easy for you to put on weight. and for com. rooney and give them the kind of genes we have. because um, we are a contract with diverse ethnic groups. so the, the most, all g z for us, from region to region, for instance, from the northwest. welcome from you. have people who are always, you know, flesh she of fights. you don't have skinny people from dispatch over the country. you would have kept people maybe in the center in the south in the east. northern pods is but when you move kind of you just like the west region, the south west, the northwest, i'm lead to ron regions of my country. people will come from the spots the have the

very easy. so now you, it depends on how you see you are. so if you know you, the green up i'm putting on much weight is all adults on you festival that seeing in cumberland is not a it's festival before. now, even if i used to be a cause for concern, it's all of a sudden that people realize that, you know, eating too much, i'm going to big has some health a has that's. so it's actually not, it's not been more than it's this does been, we've been evicted that you know, the ice have opened so, you know, trying not to put on too much we. so at the points we speak those who had already pulled down so much. we can only try to follow some dieting programs and to keep cheap. but for those plastic rang up, it's easier for them to you know,

try to control the intake of food. because actually there's plenty, like i said, to control the intake or food and not grow out of proportion if you want to be the skinny type us at the same time, we believe that as well as we can soon be tools tv. so for those who have this a frame of mind, what is best for them is to, you know, not but out loud. how that look. so they just eat and you know, go with the ship that appears. so that is it's so um, it depends on the individual and you know, it depends on what you want and your body shape goals. thank you so much patience where to go for your time today. well, the winners here is clearly the entire weight loss industry. and industry that feeds on people's insecurity and vanity and promote a quick fix solution. unfortunately, achieving healthy way is not a quick fix,

but rather a lifelong journey of healthy habits that include eating proper portions and getting in and appropriate amount of exercise. that is not something most people want to hear, and instead they resort to the overly promoted and expensive weight loss plans and fad diets. while it can help, you should wait quickly. it will not stay off as research indicates, a 95 percent failure rate of these plans and fad diets. as many as 65 percent of people will actually return back to their own weight within a year. i'm christy. i thanks for watching and we'll see you right back here next time on the cost of everything. a

1950 to us i saw was returning to peaceful minds, but the newspapers didn't report ongoing massacres and the ukrainian saw, according to intelligence ukrainian nationalist and the ukrainian insurgent ami said by real mind shall give each of which way to these atrocities. for future was the best old that that was going on. but as soon as you saw school knew what to do, why to be like this result was to do an immediate problem through the plaintiff was the head of the n t, v d sabotaged departments of the time he was tasked with stopping the atrocities in ukraine. for good reason, general sort of blonde, it was very familiar with the situation. he had experienced fighting the nationalist before the war. loveless to con, get a z, a do it to made. so didn't know, could he? but it was well that's funny. so give me the task was tremendously difficult, but suit up a lot that was determined to complete his. he had personal accounts to settle with

the ukranian nationalist. the crating of drawings destroyed and not at all stuff region. according to the russian ministry of defense with a civilian, a wounded as one of the you or these pressures into a residential area. the an explosion in the ukrainian control town and bone bass kills 17 wounds 32, including a child, a key of but huge as most ago, but even ukrainian supported suck, doubting that narrative pulls from the program and election quoted. nigeria upholds being company. president's victory rejects claims by political opponents, but the vote was rig nigeria as vice president says it's a win for democracy is there.
