A conference on 'Obesity 2013' will be held from 23 to 24 October 2013 in London, UK. It will focus on the theme 'The management of obesity and its complications'.

Obesity has reached global proportions. Alongside the US, the UK has the highest obesity levels in the world. Researchers predict that if the current trend continues, up to 48% of men and 43% of women in the UK could be obese by 2030, adding an additional GBP 1.9 billion per year in medical costs for obesity-related diseases.

This conference will bring together professionals in the field of obesity and the related fields of diabetes, endocrinology and cardiology to discuss the current issues and challenges involved in managing the national and international obesity crisis.For further information, please visit:
