In the period of lockdown 144, will elders and chronic illness patients may gain body weight? Will it impact on producing more obese patients after 14 days?

As per expert findings individuals may develop 10 % increase in their body weight. But this can be managed after the lock down period.

Additionally, obese or high risk patients are advised to do their regular exercises inside their home or terrace on regular basis.

This may help them keep their body weight under control.

It is better to do some regular exercise to avoid obesity. I found some simple stretches on Pinterest, which I currently follow. Any age people can do these exercises. Hope this helps
