Health Status Outcomes for Obesity Among Adults

Health Status Outcomes

More than one-fourth of all adults in Utah were obese in 2018 (28.4%, age-adjusted rate; 27.8%, crude rate). Populations with high rates of obesity often have high rates of diabetes and high blood pressure (Nguyen NT, Nguyen XM, Lane J, Wang P. Relationship between obesity and diabetes in a U.S. adult population: findings from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 1999-2006.
