Obesity is becoming a serious public health problem in every nation, which has negatively impacted children and adults. It may be due to less exercise and fast food culture among them. It can be solved by promoting health awareness and eating habits of organic food.
This
essay will discuss some reasons for excess weight and suggest two solutions.
