Professor Steven Blair, from the Arnold School of Public Health at the
University of South Carolina, said greater emphasis had to be placed on
physical activity to prevent the obesity problem in Scotland from reaching
US proportions. He suggested exercise could be prescribed to patients by
their doctors.
.
Professor Blair was speaking ahead of a major conference in Edinburgh
today, which will also hear from Scotland's top doctor, Chief Medical
Officer Sir Harry Burns.

.
Mr Blair claimed physical inactivity had become "the biggest
public health challenge of the 21st century" and said people must consider
their levels of activity as well as just their diet.
.
He said much of the published scientific literature on the causes of
obesity was flawed, arguing it placed "an over-emphasis on dietary intake,
at the expense of measuring the positive effect of physical activity".
.
Mr Blair added: "Obesity rates continue to rise and in inter-national
obesity terms, Scotland is not far behind the US. If we wish to prevent
levels in Scotland reaching that of the US, greater emphasis has to be
placed on exercise."
.
He said: "This could involve creative solutions such as considering the
provision of exercise advice, or indeed the prescribing of exercise to
patients by doctors and other health professionals.
.
"An entire industry has built up around diet, but reducing our dietary
intake alone will not solve our problems with obesity. Physical inactivity
has become the biggest public health challenge of the 21st century and we
have to become more active if we are to stop collectively sleepwalking
into obesity.
