In the articles, “What You Eat Is Your Business" and “Don’t Blame the Eater” authors Radley Balko and David Zinczenko present strong but differing view points regarding the growing concern related to obesity. While also bringing forth opinions on whether American policymakers are over involved or under involved. Each does this by bringing forth opinions supported by facts, personal experience and the idea that there is a lack of awareness of what is considered to be unhealthy. Despite their varying opinions it can be agreed that there is still not enough being done, by the American people or by American policymakers, to try and reduce the increasingly high numbers of people impacted by obesity and improper nutrition. For most, this topic is…
Sugar, fat and obesity are only a couple of words that prove to be the start of one of the biggest arguments in the history of the US and even the world. Sugar is a substance that is used in most of our sweets, drinks and more and is evidently becoming more popular by the day. The argument comes from the fact that people believe that sugar is the leading cause of obesity and research has proved that. The argument stems from two things, people believing that sugar is good and other believing sugar is bad and other being whether government intervention is needed or not. While sugar is bad for you in enormous quantities I believe that sugar is still good and healthy when taken in good amounts and I believe that government intervention is needed…
Today’s obesogenic environment is geared toward making us fat. There is an extraordinary amount of finger pointing going on at who is at fault. The most economical foods today are all the unhealthy foods, not fruits and vegetables. In the immense discussion over what to do about it, the cure lies in changing our own practices.…
As “Fat America: Who Is to Blame” describes, people cannot be forced to eat healthy food items. The individual chooses what they eat and how much they exercise. If they choose not to eat healthy or exercise a proper amount, that is their choice. There are people who do not regularly eat fast food or junk food, which is proof that it is not impossible to do so. Furthermore, consumers drive the market.…
Obesity is a problem. Whether it is a problem that affects all of us, as suggested by David Zinczenko in “Don’t Blame the Eater” or each our own, as proposed by Radley Balko, action must nevertheless be taken. Balko makes good points in his article, but Zinczenkos credibility makes his essay stronger. Balko’s proposition is not realistic and I believe it does not put into consideration the best “of the people.” His idea of reform would only benefit very few people and does not take into account people with health problems.…
Nevertheless, people often need advises to do the right things, so the government can give some healthy food plans for them to eat. Also, there are three reasons for the government control the diets, obesity, health problems and by having bad diets, it will affect other people. Obesity is a big problem caused by bad diets. One problem for obesity is that fat people might interfere other people. The size of them are large; therefore they need more spaces than skinny people, and then they need to squeeze in huge crowed and it might make others feel uncomfortable.…
The American Government contributes to the obesity epidemic by supporting unhealthy eating habits in order to make a profit the federal food administration supports factory farming, big pharmacies, politicians and subsidy program. Have you wondered why less healthy food is inexpensive compared to healthy food?When you go into a grocery store and compare the price of a large bag of Doritos and a bag of grapes. There is a big gap in the food industry filled with these genetically engineered snacks. These cheap convenient snacks are targeted at lower economic levels, they are forced to reconcile since their financial restrictions force them to do so. Obesity is peaking in america and we don't have anyone to blame but ourselves.…
The Mayo Clinic describes obesity as a “complex disorder involving an excessive amount of body fat”. Even though most people think that obesity is solely a cosmetic issue, the major issues that it causes are anything but superficial. Obesity kills approximately 300,000 people per year and by 2030 it is predicted that half of Americans will be overweight or obese. Along with the 35% of Americans who die from obesity each year, 15% of them are male and 20% of them are female. Obesity can increase your chances of developing heart disease, getting diagnosed with cancer or even having a stroke.…
Do you eat a lot of junk food? Do you know what it does to you? If you found out junk food was not good for you, would you still eat it? Obesity is a problem in America because some Americans eat too much junk food than they’re supposed to. They eat it when some of them doesn’t know what it does to them.…
Obesity is Swallowing up your Country Obesity is linked to more worldwide deaths than starvation. The U.S Government is not doing enough to improve on this issue in America. Throughout the years, diseases that come from nutritional deficiency have been replaced with an imbalance of nutrients. There has been a dietary increase over the last 30 years, along with a decrease of exercise. More than half of the world’s population lives in a country where obesity is among one of the leading health risks.…

The essay overall does a fantastic job in getting the message…
In that essay, I think I did an overall good job. I followed my writing process and I believe I had good punctuation, grammar, and clarity throughout my writing. I believe that this essay in particular was well-written and is also one of the best essays I have written. In my expository essay, I noticed that I had some difficulty in the following: “clarifying a main idea that satisfies the assignment, developing discussion points that support the clarified main idea, and using supporting details that align with the focus.” Overall, I still did great and explained the way Jane Austin writes.…
Ultimately, food restrictions would cause unemployment, business failures, closing of restaurants, and lesser competition (Kiel). The government wants to keep people protected and make life better. Therefore, they should have the right to regulate what one person consumes. The problem of obesity is not just about food; it is about an entire lifestyle.…
