Vera Health Views reports that the reasons the U.S. population is fat are because Americans eat out frequently, eat foods loaded with additives and fail to adequately exercise.  The convenience of fast foods and soft drinks with high calorie choice, processed and fatty foods all contribute greatly to the obesity of people.

Statistics show that 25% of American children are obese and 40 % of American adults are obese.  We often substitute words that describe but lack the hard punch.  Perhaps its time we go back to calling a fat person “fat”.  Obese is a nice way to say the same thing.

Diet aid businesses, equipment businesses and fad workout programs are flourishing because of our obesity.  Spas have sprung up in all communities and memberships are soaring.

The early American farm family was healthy because they expended energy to produce their food and earn their living.  That was before the age of migration to the big cities and city life luxuries.

It is time for Americans to do more than think about the foods they eat.  It is time for Americans to exercise more on a regular schedule.  Look around and you will agree with Vera.  You will find articles from 2009 forward.  Visit this this website and follow the advice that fits your needs.
