Honestly I blame the parents.
When I pick the kids up from school all of the overweight kids have obese parents.
I’m sorry if it offends but it’s rarely genetic it’s normal they feed the kids high processed shit.
I think a lot of the initiatives mentioned in the article focus too much on certain types of food, and not enough on portion size. No one actually gets obese from eating burgers or drinking soft drinks, they get obese by consuming too much of them.
I understand it’s much easier to drink more calories of coke than it is to eat the same calories in apples, but you are not going to be able to make millions of children, and more importantly their parents, change their eating habits so significantly just by increasing tax a bit on certain products.
No they won’t. The fat jabs are being developed at pace, so no doubt they’ll be a version for children. Oral tablets will also be on the shelves very shortly. It’s the food and pharmaceuticals making other drugs who should be worried. Over consumption of food has finally found an antidote.
This is basically demographic change issue. Obesity rates for white kids has stalled/mild decrease but the demographic change means more black and south asian kids as a percentage, both of which have higher obesity rates than white brits.
A few years ago as an adult I gained enough weight to be considered obese, I thankfully lost it all but I cannot get over how miserable being overweight made me. I have a lot of sympathy for younger people growing up obese and the unfortunate challenges they will face.
Blame the parents and blame our education system for failing to teach people how weight gain/loss works.
It still shocks me how many people don’t understand or don’t believe that calories directly affect your weight.
They focus too much on eating the “right thing” instead of focusing on eating the right amount.
Add to that many people’s understanding of calories in stuff is way off. Making a healthy homemade chicken salad means fuck all when you drench it in oil and full fat mayo.
