Obese America: Weighing The Scales
By admin
American obesity can be known as the latest epidemic that has hit America from recent decades with a predicted two thirds of the nation s population being overweight. Why has American obesity become an epidemic? Is it inevitable that American parents and children remain just the right weight? If you speak with an American, you will see how concerned they are about the calorie intake. They almost always check the nutritional description on any cereal or box of food to double check the quantity they should consume. This is something you will see no Japanese or Indian do. So how come American obesity has become such an issue and how has the situation got out of hand?
Majority of Americans will claim that they did not become overweight on their own accord or due to carelessless. They say that they do not enjoy being the clothes size which reads triple X plus but, they also claim that the fault is solely not on their part. But the economists see a different point of view which shocks the public which states that America being obese is healthy on the economy. Experts also claim that changed lifestyle patterns too are responsible for this American obesity disaster. Decades ago, people got paid in the workplace for the physical effort they contributed at work but nowadays, people pay gymnasiums in order to shed a few tears and burn calories after work.
Some people also point the finger at women s rights movement from which house wives in charge of the kitchen and healthy cooking have turned in to busy business women or professionals. According to this theory if women remained in the kitchens preparing their own meals and looking after the family’s nutritional requirements, industry giants in the food industry would have not been able to rise up in the sky and destroy a healthy nation.
American obesity has become the headline makers around the world and it has become the worry of many policy makers. The question now is who’d make things work differently for American obesity issue? What do policy makers say about American obesity and how can they bring about a change in society? All this is a humongous challenge to Americans today!
