The growing number of overweight people is putting a strain on the health care system in an effort to deal with the health issues involved. Some people think that the best way to deal with this problem is to introduce more physical education lessons in the school curriculum. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

In recent times, the number of obese and overweight people in the country has been on the increase.

This

trend has become a challenge to the country's health system, so

therefore

I totally agree with those who opined that the most helpful way to deal with

this

menace is to inculcate more physical

education

lessons in the

school

curriculum. To start with, studies have shown that majority of the overweight population are children of

school

age, due to their sedentary

life styles

a manner of living that reflects the person's values and attitudes

lifestyles

and consumption of fatty diets, most of these children do not involve themselves in any form of exercises; the driver takes them to

school

or the

school

bus and same brings them home

this

resultantly leads to their obesity, I belief when physical

education

is introduced in their various

school

curriculum,

this

would help tailor down their weight reliving the health system of stress.

Secondly

, introducing physical

education

into curriculums doesn't only help their weight, it

also

helps their heart and brains. When children are allowed to exercise adequately, you find out they become alert both in mind and soul, which means that children can become healthy

and psychological. To sum it all, I fully agree that overweight amongst the citizen can be
