  1. It is sure that it is one the most important reason for being obese because people who live in Western countries have too much to eat. What do you think ?

  2. I think that it's probably the most important reason, but it's absolutly not the only one.
    the causes of obesity are : -diet (of curse if you eat to much and too fat you probably will be obese)
    -a lake of exercice
    -ganatic (I think that 2 overweight people who have a kid together have a lot of chances to have an obese child)
    -medical and psychyatryc illness (some antidepresant make you get fat or eat a lot)
    -depandances :for an exemple, if you're a chocolaholic or an alcoholic (2 things which are very kalorical) you can get obese

    And of curse I know all of this because in our class we had to do an oral exercice about obesity, so I red the whole page on wikipedia about this

  3. obesity is a very unhealthy practice. Persons with that condition should take better care of themselves in order to live a long healthy life.

  4. Studies are being conducted to verify whether genetics may be a contributing factor; but up to date, it is an undeniable fact that overeating does create obesity.

  5. Overeating is the main reason to become obese.
    However other reasons like heredity or thyroid gland problems may cause obesity.
    Psychological affections also cause a dependance for eating...

  7. First of all, obesity is a widespread phenomenon throughout the world, particularly in the USA, because people are eating less and less healthy.
    Indeed, eating well is quite expensive, for example, cooking healthily takes time, so people don't take the time to do it.
    On the other hand, I don't think overeating is the only cause of obesity; it can be due to stress at work, in the family or whatever. It may be a way of taking refuge in food to escape these situations. Tragedy can also strike and lead to obesity. Eating too much fast food is another way of getting obese and forgetting to eat healthily.
    In conclusion, we have seen that the factors involved in obesity are numerous, and that the best way to remedy them is to adopt a balanced diet and engage in physical activity.
