The Daily PollPoll: Do you feel that your weight is healthy?
A new study shows that 80% of Ireland’s over-50s are overweight.
FOUR OUT OF five people over the age of fifty in Ireland are overweight.
A new study says that a similar proportion has an ‘increased’ or ‘substantially increased’ waist circumference.
It points out that high levels of obesity and overweight not only place a burden on people’s health, but on the health system too.
