Obesity on The Rise

It’s no secret that America loves its fast food and big portions, but the statistics on obesity in the country are downright staggering. According to recent studies, over the past two decades, the number of adults who are considered obese has risen by more than 30 percent. That means roughly 1 in 3 adults are now considered obese in the United States. And it’s not just adults who are affected – childhood obesity rates have also been on the rise.

This trend is particularly concerning because obesity is linked to a host of health problems, including diabetes, heart disease, and even certain types of cancer. It’s clear that as a nation, we need to take a closer look at our eating habits and make changes to promote a healthier lifestyle. It’s never too late to start making small changes, whether it’s choosing healthier food options or incorporating more physical activity into our daily routines.
