9 U.S. Statistics Physically inactive individuals are twice as likely to develop coronary heart disease in comparison to regularly active individuals. Three in 10 adults get the recommended amount of prescribed physical activity. Thirty- Seven percent of adults report they are not physically active. Sedentary lifestyles coupled with poor nutrition can lead to individuals becoming overweight and obese. This increases the risk for hypertension (high blood pressure), type 2 diabetes, stroke, coronary artery disease, gallbladder disease, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, respiratory complications and even certain types of cancer. An estimated 41 million Americans are pre-diabetic and develop type 2 diabetes within ten years. Typically a five to seven percent reduction in weight is needed to combat or delay the onset of this disease. Three in five American carry an excess amount of fat. Almost 60 million American are obese and more than 108 million Americans are either obese or overweight. These figures continue to rise and are now being seen in children. The number of over weight teens has tripled in proportion from 1980 to percent of U.S. children spend 4 hours or more watching television. Disease such as hypertension, dyslipidemia, type 2 diabetes (formerly called adult onset diabetes), cardio-respiratory complications, and now psychological and emotional disorders are on the rise as the result of poor nutrition and inactivity.
