  1. Lisa Hughes: I agree that diet, exercise, and education play a significant role in obesity. I am a bit older and even in my childhood it was significantly less! It''s very true how the modern lifestyle contributes also. Our ancestors hunted and gathered. Should we try to get back to our roots a bit?

  2. I agree that obesity is a growing issue in the US and around the world. With the fast food industry growing larger everyday people are getting more and more takeout and junk food rather than spending time cooking and eating healthier.

  3. I think obesity is one of the most concerning health issues in the US. Another contributor that would be worth looking at is a lack of portion control. Fast food is generally terrible at this, where a single "serving" could contain well over 1000 calories, or the majority of the recommended daily caloric intake in a single meal.
