AMA Obesity Awareness Week

AMAs around the country will be issuing calls to action in support of healthier living during AMA’s Obesity Awareness Week.

AMA’s Obesity Awareness Week, from 2 to 6 March, focuses on simple, easy ways that everyday habits can be swapped for healthier outcomes: an afternoon stroll instead of a movie, a slice of cake changed for a piece of fruit.

Obesity Awareness Week coincides with the inaugural World Obesity Day on Wednesday 4 March that was created to inspire global change in policy making, attitudes and action in response to the obesity crisis worldwide. 

AMA has partnered with Screen-Free Week to include digital detox activities.
