6- Obesity is turning into a serious national program.
Suggest some solutions in order to prevent people from getting obese?
Obesity is on
the rise, and it is becoming more and more of a national health
concern. It affects more than 1/3
of the population, and an additional 1/3 is
overweight. With obesity becoming more and more of a problem each year, the
people in Iran are going to suffer from a catastrophic health problem.
I believe that the Iranian Government should take action to manage its people’s
diets because they will not do it on their own. If the
Iranian government stepped
up its campaign on obesity, many of the country’s obese people
could stop
getting heavier and will shed pounds.
I think that the problem with people in our country is the lack of motivation to diet
and exercise. I believe that the public policy for people would be such that
people who exercise regularly should be rewarded. I believe that people
who put
forth effort in an exercise program should be rewarded with tax deductions. This
would bring a lot more people into the world of exercise.
The next most-important solution is education. Education is the key if lowering of
the people’s weight is wanted. Providing them with
the knowledge of what foods
do what, how, and why would allow the public to be more educated on how to
lose weight properly. Habits are
established at a young age, and if healthy
habits can be established, then the country can be much better off.
And the final step is to pass laws requiring fast food
and chain restaurants to
post nutrition information such as caloric, fat and sugar content on menus. After
being thoroughly educated about dieting, Iranians must have access to the
information to be able to know what foods are good or bad and why. Knowing
how to read is not relevant if there is nothing to read.
