The cost of obesity is going up.

Naturally! When obese people are around in the family, the budget tends to show deficit.

The number of obese and overweight people is increasing dramatically all over the world.

Though the U.S. ranks number one in taking care of obese people, other countries are fiercely competing with America. The annual figure of the number of over weight people in every country is increasing.

Nutritionists and health experts say the main reason is diet and physical inactivity. I don’t agree with this view. Some people suddenly become fat after affected by certain illness like typhoid. I know a few cases in my own family.

The cost of obesity is going up due to:

Money spent in research to come out with the best weight loss pills, Advertisement cost of weight loss pills manufacturers,

Devising ways to accommodate them in the house and in other public places,

Purchase of diet pills and nutritional supplements that are costlier than the regular food,

Usage of extra fabric.

Will there be a future world that gives no room for obesity?
