WHY THIS CONVERSATION MATTERS
Malaysia is among the most overweight nations in Asia.
More than half of Malaysian women face increased health risks linked to metabolic and lifestyle factors, including a higher risk of conditions such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Yet conversations around women's health remain difficult to have, often shaped by judgement, social pressure, and expectations built up over a lifetime.
From a young age, many women are taught to prioritise others before themselves. This can lead to delays in seeking support — even when something doesn't feel right.
54.4%
of Malaysian adults are overweight or living with obesity.[1]
34.1%
of women in Malaysia are more likely to experience obesity than men.[2]
29.9%
of Malaysian adults are physically inactive — a recognised lifestyle risk factor associated with weight-related health outcomes.[3]
