    Abstract

    Background: In populations of poor countries, urbanisation is linked to a higher prevalence of obesity. Urbanisation causes fundamental changes in lifestyle such as less physical activity, more calorie-dense food consumption, and psychosocial stress. This causes weight gain & obesity which leads to the development of hypertension, increased LDL cholesterol, decreased HDL cholesterol, and diabetes.
