Obesity: Africa’s new crisis | Society | The Observer: A host of parasitical industries have grown up to feed off the obesity crisis, from quack diets and hypnotism at one end of the spectrum to fitness boot camps and bariatric surgery at the other. Television has also got in on the act, with reality shows encouraging people to turn their lives around by exercising and improving diet. One of the most popular is Kabelo’s Boot Camp, hosted by a pop star who became a poster boy for healthy living after defeating a drug problem and losing 100lb. Now Kabelo Mabalane runs marathons, eschews substance abuse and puts 10 South Africans selected from the thousands of hefty applicants through their paces on his 11-week show.
