Other Valuable Insights
From 1999 –2000 through 2017–2018, US obesity prevalence increased from 30.5% to 42.4%. During the same time, the prevalence of severe obesity increased from 4.7% to 9.2%.
Obesity-related conditions include heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and certain types of cancer. These are among the leading causes of preventable, premature death.
Excess weight harms health in many ways. It increases the risk of developing conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, osteoarthritis, and some cancers, to name just a few, and reduces the life span.
Exercise can improve the quality of life for people who've had cancer, and it can also improve their fitness. Exercise can also lower the risk of dying from breast, colorectal and prostate cancer.
By drawing on previous research on the costs of absenteeism, lost productivity, smoke breaks and health care costs, the researchers developed an estimate that each employee who smokes costs an employer an average of $5,816 annually above the cost of a person who never smoked. These annual costs can range from $2,885 to $10,125, according to the research.
Days missed from work are a cost to both employees (in lost wages) and employers (in work not completed). Obese employees miss more days from work due to short-term absences, long-term disability, and premature death than nonobese employees. (3) They may also work at less than full capacity (also known as presenteeism)
The obesity prevalence was 40.0% among adults aged 20 to 39 years, 44.8% among adults aged 40 to 59 years, and 42.8% among adults aged 60 and older.
Regular exercise can help insulin more effectively lower your blood sugar level. Physical activity can also help you control your weight and boost your energy. If you have type 2 diabetes, exercise can lower your risk of dying of heart disease.
As a result of the extensive health and business benefits stemming from a workforce with healthy eating habits, there is an interest in evidence-based workplace programs promoting healthy nutrition.
Regular low-impact aerobic activities can increase strength and endurance in your back and improve muscle function. Abdominal and back muscle exercises (core-strengthening exercises) may help reduce symptoms by strengthening the muscles around your spine.
Employers pay higher life insurance premiums and pay out more for workers’ compensation for employees who are obese than for employees who are not.
Among men, obesity prevalence was lower in the lowest and highest income groups compared with the middle-income group. Researchers observed this pattern among non-Hispanic White and Hispanic men.
A new study suggests that U.S. businesses pay almost $6,000 per year extra for each employee who smokes compared to the cost to employ a person who has never smoked cigarettes.
It is important to make sure everyone – from leadership to employees — is on the same page about nutrition. Nutrition education is a common strategy for workplace programs targeting diet, and education provided by a dietician has been identified as an element of success for workplace nutrition programs.24 Information can also be provided through a variety of communication channels, like brochures, videos, posters, or emails.

I was a fortunate child. While not a crazy wealthy upbringing, we did have regular meals with my family of 5 siblings and Mom and Dad. Feeling inspired to simplify the process of getting dinner on the table for busy families and having a great friend named Chef Vaughn Hobbs, a few bucks from Dad, and Mom’s passion for family dinner, I started a meal delivery company. In 2017, we recognized that we could now use technology to load the ingredients for our meals directly into the online shopping carts of our clients instead of delivering the measured-out ingredients to their front porch. This new approach still made cooking meals easy and saved our clients a lot of $. Chantele caught the vision and excitedly helped us build the app. Tanna oversaw filling online shopping carts. Megan came on board and added invaluable nutritional insight.

A client relationship introduced us to WellSteps and we quickly saw how a collaboration of The Dinnerhub + WellSteps could benefit more good people through their employers! Employers were spending big money on health insurance. We saw that with The Dinnerhub + WellSteps, employers could reallocate their current insurance spend toward proactively incentivizing good health in their organization. It was a no brainer, right! Did an employer want to pay for ER visits or invest in The Dinnerhub + WellSteps and avoid these expensive events and insurance increases? We are so excited to help you make healthy happen for your employees! It is because of good companies like yours that have a higher vision of what they can do for their employees that we are growing.
