The majority of the population is overweight, in comparison to a few years ago.
This
is principally due to the lack of activity of people and their
food
rich in fat-acid.
this
topic, the several causes of
this
issue will be developed and some suggestion will be given.
First
of all, time and
food
are the main causes of
this
health problem. Indeed, generally, people because of their busy work do not have the time to prepare their meals. In fact, they prefer
lunch in a
restaurant
or by buying a ready meal in a supermarket. Companies and
restaurant
,
such
as fast
food
understood
this
actual issue and promised to these people that in only a few minutes, they will get a hot meal for cheap.
For example
, Macdonad is the leader of
this
kind of
restaurant
. Its objectives is to prepare a set of hamburgers, fries and drinks in 10 minutes, which is a good deal for the person who has just 1 hour for lunch-break per day.
However
, traditionally, these aliments are mainly composed with sugar. In consequence, they help people to be fat, because the body cannot transform all the sugar absorbed into energy.
Instead
, it transforms the extra in fat.
For example
, according to the professor Montgomery, in his article for the CNRS, around 60% of the population prefers
foods rich in sugar than vegetable.
Moreover
, one solution could be given more information about the risk related to the unbalance diet. Indeed, the government can publish preventive advertising near strategical places,
such
as restaurants or bus station.
Food
industries and
restaurant
should
also
inform their clients of the danger by including in their menus more fruits and vegetable.
For instance
, Subway's policy is to give the number of calories
next
to the sandwiches. These different solutions could work only if people decided to change their habits.
Therefore
, rich fat-acid
food
is the main factor of overweigh, but eating between the different meals during the day is the main source of taking kilograms.
In conclusion, the increase of overweight people
considerably since a few years. The main reasons are because people do not have time to cook by themselves and prefer
a ready meal.
Thus
, the government could inform more their inhabitants of the danger related to their bad habits and the restaurants could propose
in their menus.
