Obesity is just as harmful as smoking - in causing death

It is an undeniable tragic truth that obesity is turning out to be just as harmful as smoking in causing deaths.
A recent survey conducted in England has established that every one death out of 6 is caused by obesity.This is the equivalent to the number of lives lost due to smoking.
Until 2012, 15.9 million people got engaged in some sports activity at once in a week. However, this figure has come down to 15.5 million as per a recent survey.
The main reason for this death ratio is found to be the failure to do at least half-an-hour exercise in a week.
Regular physical exercise can certainly prevent the onset of cancer, heart diseases, memory loss due to ageing, mental stress, and diabetes, as established in this survey.
