American obesity - latest epidemic that has hit America?

The latest epidemic to hit america is obesity and the situation has become worse than ever. 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 why is American obesity still up there at a sky high range threatening national health?

Some people who form a part of American obesity circle claim that they did not become fat or overweight on their own accord. 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. According to economists, the more overweight an American is, the better it is for the country s economy. How can this be true? It turns out that changes in food technology where food is modified to be tastier, easier to cook all contribute to the cause.
The dramatic changes in lifestyle over the past few decades can be the major cause of American obesity.

Another group of people put the blame on women becoming independant from which the whole family routine has changed where fast food routines are concerned. They claim that due to a woman s absence in the kitchen and due to her being busier than usual, it allowed space for food technologists and industry giants in the food arena to come up with easy to make food such as cookies, fries, ice creams, soda in short all those things served at food chains that serve high calorie foods.

American obesity is surely hitting the headlines around the world and is worrying many health practitioners. After a few decades of living on fast food, what can experts do to control American obesity? 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!
