Obesity rates are on the rise especially with teenagers. what do you think are the major contributors to this growing problem?

There are many contrubitors to the rise in obesity among teenagers. These frequently include: Lack of proper health education classes, poor food choices, lack of exercise and proper sleep ( lack of sleep slows down the metabolism which significantly increases the chance of weight gain) and social acceptance movements. In current times, we unfortunately have to deal with movements associating obesity with beauty. While obese people are beautiful just like average sized people, there is often a misconception that obesity can also equal health which is simply not true. The more fat you have the more likely you are to acquire diabetes, heart disease, arthritis, a heightened risk of stroke and a plethora of other complications.
