The correct answers are:

- Children are snacking more today;

- Unhealthy snacks add about 200 calories more each day;

- Americans are eating more high-calorie, high-fat, and high-sugared snacks today;

In the past few decades the lifestyle of the people in the US has changed significantly. The people have become much less active than they were few decades ago. The reason for that is that type of jobs they are engaged in, as well as living in large cities where they have to use vehicles to get to their workplace. The food has changed as well, and lot of new very tasty dishes and snacks have emerged on the market, and over time have become more and more popular. These new dishes and snacks are much high in calories, fats, and sugars, which over-saturates the human body very easily. With this kind of intake of food, plus at bigger amounts, and the lesser activity, the body is accumulating all of those things in it, thus the people become obese.
