The society’s villain

The average waist circumference has increased in the United States currently, and it's a greatest problem between North-American populations, because several diseases start with the abdominal obesity. In the article “The Expanding American Waistline” by Nicholas Bakalar, it is clear there was this significantly and worrying increased. “Standing on the scale every day is all good and well, but you can have a steady weight and still have an expanding waist. And that should be a signal for people to start looking at their diet and physical activity” said the lead author of the study, Dr. Earl S. Ford, a medical officer with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Thus, many factors contribute to theses complex problems, but the basic reasons are simple: we eat too much, we choose the wrong foods and we don’t get enough exercise. It’s common we see children, adults and old people eat fast foods and drink soda during the main daily meals, what it’s the bad! Because the body needs vitamins, nutrients and minerals for survive, and these foods don’t provide anything. Also, people are sedentary more and more and they don’t practice physical activity, because today everything is easily, so it becomes lazy. Besides, we can report some risks for the abdominal obesity, like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart attacks, stroke and cancer, that’s why all these diseases lead the death. Therefore, we conclude the fat is the society's villain and its consequences are severe, that’s why it’s important to encourage everyone have good eating habits and an active life.
