Opinion:
Obesity is a modern problem. People who do have enough money to buy food, eat more and more. The human body is capable to store food, but the human body was not designed to store that large amounts of food over a long period of time. The capability was ment for periods in men's life wherein there was no food available. But food in our times and in our part of the world is always available. Here starts the problem. It is to easy to say that obesity is an individual problem and obese people have there own faith in their hands. Obesity is a national health threat and should be dealt with accordingly.
