Weight Management The Kenyan Way?
Boniface Kagumba

One of the greatest challenge in life today is to live a healthy  lifestyle that is free from illnesses. Every one wants to be productive in their businesses,career and family growth.
life has become like a competition where everyone has become a busy body.

In Kenya and across the Saharan Africa being overweight was previously associated with wealth and a sign of good health.However with the recent technological advances and education through media and awareness campaigns all over the country a reasonable fraction of people are now aware of Obesity as a disease.

There is still more  to be done to convince people to maintain a healthy lifestyle in as far as health is concerned and educate them on the dangers of overweight and obesity.

Eating Habits in Kenya and the Inactive nature of the Kenyans in the Urban area is a major contributor to this big menace.The Kenyan Cuisine is not complete without "Nyama Choma" roasted meat,or fried chicken which is a major cause of obesity to the Kenyan people.

Maize which is the Kenyan staple food on the other hand seem to be abused as well as part of high energy giving food.

With the Right kind of advice from a registered Dietitian/Nutritionist one is able to follow the right choices
hence preventing permanent damage.
