Using pooled data from five waves of the Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS) between 2010 and 2015, it reveals significant shifts in the distribution of the obese population within the Chinese society. China is now at a critical point in the transition with respect to obesity. The positive income–obesity relationship is about to turn negative; the obesity-depressing effect of education continues to increase; and the urban–rural gap in obesity is soon to disappear and reverse. Consequently, individuals with lower income or less education and rural residents face increasingly higher risks of obesity over time. The distribution of obesity in today’s Chinese society increasingly mirrors and may aggravate existing social inequalities. - Reproduced,  aNutritional diseases - China910026  aInternational Sociology  aObesity - China  2ddccAR  00102ddc40709384992aIIPAbIIPAd2019-09-07h34(3), May, 2019: p.347-367.pAR120825r2019-09-07yAR
