All over the world, societies are facing a growing problem with obesity. This problem affects both children and adults. What are the reasons for this rise in obesity? How could it be tackled?

Weight gain among children and adults is a common health issue faced by most of the country’s population.

This

trouble badly affected all citizens ,especially to child and teenagers. Modern lifestyle and unhealthy

meals

are the main reasons behind

this

and it can be addressed by promoting healthy living patterns. Let’s begin with the cause of the increase in obesity complications. The modern living standard is the major reason for

this

cause.

This

is because

people

do not have time to do workouts and physical workouts.

For example

, in children’s daily activities, they spend most of their time in front of the TV and playing computer games.

Similarly

, consumption of unhealthy fast

food

is another reason for

this

trouble. The reason behind

this

is that children and adults are preferring to eat fast

food

from global chain restaurants.

For instance

, children like

food

from KFC and other restaurants rather than home-cooked

meals

.

However

, fortunately, there is a number of solutions available to address

this

problem.

First

of all, the government should promote healthy living standards to their citizen by encouraging them for more physical exercise.

This

can be done by managing more open public spaces to play physical games in cities area. Traditional methods of city planning in Kathmandu can be taken as an example, where a large playground was mandatorily needed to build houses so that

people

can be able to do physical training. Another method to address

this

problem could be to raise a tax on unhealthy

meals

. Government should impose high tax rates on unhealthy

food

and provide subsidies to healthy

meals

items.

This

method can help to demotivate the public to eat fast

food

. Take, Switzerland as an example, the government hike the tax on sugar products, due to that

people

consume fewer fizzy drinks and they have fewer obesity problems compared with other European countries. All things considered, obesity is not only one country dilemma but a global complication.

People

are spending their time by less physical exercise and eating more fast

food

are the major reasons behind

this

dilemma.

However

, in my view, to address

this

problem, authorities should introduce different plans to motivate more physical exercise and healthy

food

to their citizens.
