Description - Obesity by Meg Greene
The statistics are alarming: millions of Americans are overweight or obese. The epidemic especially affects children, many of whom suffer from severe obesity-related conditions that could make them the first generation to die younger than their parents. Circumstances have changed since 1900, enabling the problem to occur: today there is more food than ever available, and less work than ever is necessary to get it. This volume of the "Gallup Major Trends & Events: The Pulse of Our Nation 1900 to the Present" series outlines where the obesity epidemic came from and how it can be fought. Polls from the Gallup Organization demonstrate that most Americans are aware of the obesity crisis and wish to obtain a healthier, more nutritious lifestyle.
