#1 Introduction to Health Care: Obesity in the U.S.

Does it bother you that the most nutritious foods are so expensive? Why is extremely unhealthy food so easily accessible and inexpensive? This topic irritates me and has motivated me to begin blogging about the unhealthy choices Americans tend to make during their lifetimes. I also decided to choose this topic because it interests me and pertains to my everyday life. As i head off to college soon, I want to be aware of the food choices I will be given and how to budget my money to get the best meal that I can. I also want to learn what motivates people to go for the fast food instead of fresh produce. I am looking forward to learning more about this topic as I research the endless topics about Obesity and Food Choices in the United States.

  1. 2.) I think that this is a very interesting, and important topic. The obesity rate in our country is only going up, but so is our economy, therefore, people are going to do whatever they can to get a hold of cheap food. This is leading our country in the wrong direction because these processed, fried, and greasy foods have no pros besides the fact that they taste good. Healthy foods not only lead to good physical results, but they also make you feel energetic and lively. I'm sure there has never been a time where you have eaten a banana and said, "wow I feel so sluggish." This is a good topic and I am excited to see more of these articles and blog posts!
