Question

What do you think are some of the contributing factors to obesity-related diseases in the United States?

Answer 1

Answer:

Poor nutrition and the lack of movement

Explanation:

Obesity is on the rise because of many contributing factors. The biggest two are poor nutrition and the lack of physical activity. Obesity related diseases, such as diabetics and coronary diseases, could well be avoided or at least reduced in numbers if people followed some basic health guidance and changed their lifestyles.

The availability of fast food, which is tasty but lacking in nutrients and full of chemicals, made it convenient for families not to cook. Ready or pre-cooked meals are preferred and people are ignorant of the health danger of such products.

The lack of physical activity is due to sedentary lifestyle of the majority of people nowadays. Being on social media has an impact as well, as people spend long hours playing with their phones or on their computers, neglecting physical exercise or an outdoor activity.
