  • When a person is "overweight", it means that they have more body fat than they need for their body to function. It's very common for people to be overweight, especially in developed countries where there's a plentiful food supply, and people have sedentary lifestyles that don't involve much exercise. A 2002 study has indicated that as much as 64% of the adult US population is overweight, and this number is increasing. "Obesity" is the point at which the level of body fat is associated with increased risk for serious medical conditions, including:

  • When a person is "overweight", it means that they have more body fat than they need for their body to function. It's very common for people to be overweight, especially in developed countries where there's a plentiful food supply, and people have sedentary lifestyles that don't involve much exercise. A 2002 study has indicated that as much as 64% of the adult US population is overweight, and this number is increasing. "Obesity" is the point at which the level of body fat is associated with increased risk for serious medical conditions, including: * Type 2 diabetes * Heart disease and high blood pressure * Joint pain * Back pain * Difficulty during pregnancy * Kidney and liver problems * Breathing problems during sleep
  • Obesity is a situation where the number of obese citizens has reached a level where its significantly lowering the average level of Health and raising the cost of State Health Services, Health Tax Credits, and Healthcare Vouchers. The main cause of widespread obesity is a high GDP, though the abundance of cheap food caused by Agriculture Subsidies can encourage overeating as well. A robust State Health Service or Private Healthcare industry are both fairly essential in combating obesity, though Junk Food Taxes and Health Food Subsidies can be even more effective. An Organic Subsidy can also lower obesity some by providing more health alternatives to junk food.
  • A doctor is organizing an effort to fight obesity in a local school. The children are challenged to walk the most miles in a five week period. He said it is hard to get multiple messages to the kids in such a short time. So nutrition is being ignored. Walking for miles is a fine activity, but it is a flawed program overall. Put the children on a leash, or better yet for safety, let's make those hampster cages and get them to spin their wheels. Drop snacks as the odomiter clicks. Another approach might be to make a gride stone and see who can keep their nose pressed against it for the longest period. Kids need real challenges, real coaching, real motivations. The walk-a-thon mentality is going to result in fatter kids. Obesity can cut ten years off of a person's life, so claim the medical experts. Kids don't care about those facts.
