Problems with weight?

More than 70% of the population in Europe is dealing with health issues that are partly caused by an unhealthy weight. There are countless (medical) reasons why a person's health is affected by their weight.

Why did we start with FITAGE?

We started FITAGE to help people gain control over their weight so they can work towards better health. The focus is primarily on people with overweight. Through our FITAGE scales It is possible to easily keep track of your own data, and our extra E-Books provide you with the tools to gain control over your weight.

Overweight and obesity

When we look at issues related to body weight, overweight is the biggest problem here, mainly in the Western world. We can make a distinction between overweight and obesity. This is related to the score of the BMI test in which the body weight falls. If this is between 25-30, it indicates overweight. If it is above 30, it indicates obesity. According to estimates from the WHO, in 2016, over 1.9 billion adults were affected by overweight or obesity. That is over 40% of the adult population!

Cause of overweight

From 1975 to 2016, the number of people with overweight has tripled. The fundamental problem behind overweight is primarily that a person consumes more calories than they expend daily. This is often traced back to unhealthy eating and not enough physical activity. At FITAGE, we want to provide support to gain control over this and ensure that you lose weight in a healthy way. Through our personenweegschaal you can easily track your weight using a mobile app.
