Obesity is one of the main problems in the world ,causing of illnesses and imminent death, especially in developed countries. Many of people have a question: why this problem tackled mostly in industrialised countries, and what can we do about it ?
Firstly, sedentary lifestyles, genetically modifited food, marketing ,and cultural norms are reasons for obesity growing in developed counties. Thecnological advancements and urban living aggravate lives and reduce physical activity, as many dwellers have desk jobs and drive cars. Moreover, aggressive marketing, GM foods contributes to poor dietaly choices.
Secondly, we must know how excess weight can hinder normal life and why it is so important to control our bodies in strong physiques. It is no secret that overweigh can be disastrous for our health and a cause of cardiovascular disease. Eighty two percent of people with heart diseses and pathologies have them because of their weight. In addition , most of this community may feel uncomfortable in society.
In the end, we need to tackle this international problem. In my opinion,the most logical decision is advertising regulation like banning the marketing of unhealthy foods in schools and public places. International cooperation is also important. For example, joining efforts through international organizations (WHO) to develop common strategies and reduce this problem in whole world.
