OBESITY

People today have become used to a fast pace life. This lifestyle change is not only causing negative effects on their life but on their health, body and mind also, becoming a cause of many chronic and cardiovascular diseases. Among these the obesity is turning out to be a growing problem in the world’s population. Obesity was earlier considered a concern of rich countries only, but now they have become a concern in poor countries as well. India is not an exception to them and there are rising number of middle-class people that are obese.

Rich people statistics show that the country is on the urge of becoming a nation with more than half of its population being obese or suffering from weight related illness or disease. Processed food attracts a large amount of people today, who have started relying on them. They contain huge percentage of Trans fat, sugers and other unhealthy and artificial ingredients. This fat builds up in the body and as people in this era have no time to exercise in their busy schedule it gets stored. A few years ago operations are surgeries were not needed because people were active. These day’s plastic surgeons and doctors are in high demand to perform surgeries to make people look slimmer and prevent diseases.

Fitness is one important aspect of living, keeps mind and soul healthy. Eating less is not a solution, which many people think is a way to get fit. We should eat a proper diet but also burn it, which requires a person to workout at least 30 minutes a day. Pick any sports activity or simply running would also help. Even stress sometimes is related to obesity. So eat healthy and stay fit.
