The Third Session of the 14th National People's Congress held a press conference on the afternoon of the 9th. The heads of four departments of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, and the National Health Commission answered questions from Chinese and foreign reporters on related issues.
Lei Haichao, director of the National Health Commission, said that he will continue to promote the "Weight Management Year" action. The first major risk factor and disease that harms the health of Chinese people is from chronic non-communicable diseases. Many pathogenic factors in chronic non-communicable diseases are closely related to everyone's behavior, lifestyle, diet and physical exercise, such as the problem of abnormal weight.
Abnormal weight can easily lead to hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, fatty liver, and even some cancers are related to abnormal weight. It is very important for everyone to be the first person in charge of their health.
