New Delhi: Concerned by the rising cases of obesity, Prime Minister Narendra Modi called on citizens to reduce their oil consumption in food and also pass on the challenge of reducing oil intake by ten percent to 10 others, as part of a collective effort to address the issue.

In his monthly Mann Ki Baat radio address, Modi emphasised that reducing oil intake is not just a personal decision but a responsibility towards one’s family and health.

Modi referred to a study that highlights the growing obesity problem, citing that one in every eight individuals is affected. "According to WHO data from 2022, approximately 250 crore people worldwide were overweight, which is a concerning figure. Obesity is a serious issue that leads to several health complications," he noted.

Modi explained that excessive oil consumption is linked to various health problems, including heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension. He suggested a method to combat this: reduce oil intake by 10 percent each month. “You can decide to buy 10 percent less oil while grocery shopping. This small change can significantly contribute to reducing obesity," he said.

Additionally, Modi encouraged listeners to pass on this challenge to 10 other people.

The prime minister also shared messages from Olympic javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra and boxing champion Nikhat Zareen, who both advocated for healthier lifestyles and warned against consuming fried foods.
