Obesity

                                                         Obesity

Obesity is a an enourmouse problem in the United States. Studies show that two out of  every three adults are either overweight or obese. Studies also say that one out of every three children is either overweight or obese. We are actually teaching our bad habbits to our children and they actually will be sicker than already are.

I wish to see more resources for young children and adults to be more active, also to provide a healthy diet and lifestyle, and more education given to young people about what they put into their bodies, what is beneficial to their health, and how to important it is to have a balanced and active routine.

                      Some obesity related diseases:

  • Diabetes
  • Heart disease
  • Stroke   
  • Liver Disease
  • High Blood pressure
  • High cholesterol
