Withings, the global leader in connected health devices and the creator of the first connected smart scale has officially launched its products in India. This move aims to introduce innovative health solutions to address the rising rates of cardiovascular diseases in the country. With a population of 1.4 billion, India faces a significant health challenge, with cardiovascular diseases linked to prevalent risk factors such as hypertension, obesity, and diabetes.
Revealing the Extent of the Health Crisis in India
Recent health data from reputable sources like The Lancet underscore the gravity of the situation. India’s urban population sees a staggering 70% classified as obese, ranking the nation third globally in obesity prevalence. Furthermore, approximately 41.73% of adults and the elderly in India suffer from at least one chronic disease, with hypertension and diabetes accounting for 68% of all chronic conditions.
The hypertension epidemic in India affects an estimated 250 million individuals, with nearly 100 million diagnosed patients remaining untreated. Equally concerning is the diabetes situation, with an estimated 77 million adults affected, and more than 50% unaware of their diabetic status. These alarming statistics emphasize the urgent need for accessible and effective healthcare solutions.
“At Withings, we are dedicated to democratizing access to transformative health technologies,” said Eric Carreel, President and founder of Withings. “What makes us unique is our capacity to capture real-life data, as seamless as it should be. There’s no other smartwatch on the market that is able to track clinical biomarkers like we do with a 30-day battery life. With the launch of our products and services in India, we are thrilled to provide those unique tools and insights to empower millions of individuals to lead healthier lives.”
“With Luxury Personified being our exclusive distributor as we open this market we remain committed to global health and wellness and are dedicated to contributing to the improvement of public health in India. Together, we will encourage local initiatives aimed at addressing the growing challenges of chronic diseases and are eager to collaborate with healthcare professionals and organizations in the region,” added Eric Carreel.
