The best reason to stop obesity is to improve health. And this has a bottom line as well. If people complain about higher cost of eating healthy, they should really be looking at long-term cost of being in ill health as they age. High blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and cancer are all very costly and all (though only some forms of cancer) are related to obesity. Blaming government and farmers for raising wrong foods, or raising animals wrong way, doesn’t solve problem. People must start eating differently, and buying organic meats and produce, to save their health. The market will figure out how to respond!

Advertising junk food to kids is immoral. However, adults who eat properly set right example and tend to have kids who eat healthy. As TV segment pointed out, much of this advertising is aimed at children around 6 years of age. They don’t do their own food shopping! They might ask their parents for sugary cereals and fast food, but parents still have ultimate control over what comes into house. They can also exert at least some control over what kids eat at school and at friend’s homes. Set a good example and teach children why healthy eating is important. They’ll get message. Overweight children are not getting that way on too much fruit! The wrong types of food are available to them, and that food is mostly provided by parents. It is NOT a coincidence! The “do as I say, not as I do” approach to parenting simply doesn’t work. You must be a positive role model.

If farmers refused to raise fruits and vegetables at all, or if grocery stores refused to stock them, maybe we could shift blame for obesity to government and agricultural system. But there is no shortage of healthy food in America! It is all a matter of PERSONAL CHOICE.

When Americans wake up and get concerned about their health, and stop trying to fix everything with yet another pill to pop every day, obesity epidemic will be but a memory. Until then, if you want to know why America is fat, look at how we spend our food dollars. We vote with our money. Look at choices we make every day!
