HealthyW8 has launched an introductory video highlighting the causes of obesity and introducing the project’s personalized, digital approach, combining nutrition, physical activity, and psychological support.
After a year and a half of dedicated work, the HealthyW8 project has released an introductory video to share insights into its mission and goals in tackling obesity across Europe. This video provides an accessible overview of the project’s purpose, highlighting current obesity challenges and how HealthyW8 aims to make a meaningful impact through personalized, digital interventions.
What You’ll Find in the Video
In this first video, we highlight the current obesity crisis in Europe, where over 30% of people face increased risks of progressing from a healthy weight to overweight or obesity. The video explains the causes behind this alarming trend, including lifestyle habits, socio-economic conditions, and limited access to personalized health solutions.
The consequences of obesity—such as increased healthcare costs, reduced life expectancy, and heightened risks for chronic diseases—underscore the need for urgent and effective intervention.
How HealthyW8 Will Make a Difference
The video introduces HealthyW8’s unique approach: personalized intervention portfolios that adapt to each individual’s needs, preferences, and emotional wellbeing. Unlike traditional one-size-fits-all programs, HealthyW8 combines nutritional guidance, physical activity, and psychological support through a digital recommendation system that learns and evolves with each user.
This solutions are designed to be engaging and user-friendly, incorporating elements like gamification and emotional feedback to sustain motivation over the long term. This video is just the first step in a much larger journey. As we continue, we’ll release more resources, tools, and insights that will support people across Europe in making healthier lifestyle choices and improving their wellbeing.
