Just last week, the Clinton's foundation- the American heart association and the US's three biggest beverage manufacturers announced an agreement to begin rolling back America's growing obesity epidemic in the place they can do most good. An example of their move is the negotiations with fast foods companies to reduce the fat in their restaurant fare. The seriousness of obesity was reflected when kids as young as ten are turning up with obesity realted to type two diabeties, which used to be known as the adult onset form of disease.

Most of the times, it is the junk food which costs bucks and not healthy organic foods. In addition, it is not only about the physical appearance of being fat that measures should be taken upon them. But instead, the considerable consequences in having too much fats in the body, clogging up our blood cells that outcomes as heart attacks or other form of health problems.
