In the U.S.,
health experts and celebrities constantly discuss the causes
of obesity
If we know the causes of obesity, why is it so
hard to lose weight? If an alien from Mars watched our television or
read our magazines, he would probably ask how humans got so fat. Was it
a natural plan for our species to grow so large?
Common
beliefs about obesity
Most
overweight and obese people say
they know why they are fat. Common reasons they give are:
- Overeating. But is
this a behavior that happens frequently in nature?

calories for later in the day when we can enjoy them more. Does it
really matter?
Oatmeal
with strawberries, peaches, and walnuts is a perfect breakfast. Use
frozen berries when fresh ones are not in season.
