obesity

      Obesity is an excess proportion of total body fat that's effecting a large portion of the American society.
American society has become 'obesogenic, meaning characterized by environments that promote increased food intake, nonhealthful foods, and physical inactivity. I chose this topic because I think our societies are hypocrite. One second, they are presenting advertisements for food and how delicious it is just to attract their audience and then turn to build a society where looks and fashions are greatly admire. Those who don't fit in those plans are seen as outsiders.
      Obesity occurs when a person consumes more calories than he or she burns. For many people this boils down to eating too much and exercising too little. Obesity is one of the most outstanding chaos the nation is facing. Twenty years ago, only a few states had residents with weight problems. But today, 41 states report dangerous levels of obesity. As we know, 93 percent of Americans believe obesity is a serious public health problem, and 35 percent believe they are overweight.
