The findings appear online today in the journal Pediatrics.
The UK spends less than Â£638m a year on obesity prevention programmes â about 1% of the social cost, the study finds. But the country spends about Â£6bn a year on the medical costs of conditions related to being overweight or obese and a further Â£10 billion on diabetes. Meanwhile the cost of obesity and diabetes to the NHS is equivalent to the UKâs combined âprotectionâ budget for the police and fire services, law courts, and prisons.
