What are the most effective strategies for reducing the global burden of obesity?

Step one is doing away with fat acceptance as a form of body positivity and replacing it with encouragement to get in shape.


Step two: make over-feeding your kids as criminal as starving them already is.
Because it’s a form of abuse whether we accept it or not.


Step three: slowly change the overconsumption habits by promoting healthy meal portions in stores and restaurants.


I know it sounds too controlling but countries with low obesity margins are countries who actually take proactive national decisions to fight against it

Stop subsidizing being fat. Don't make it a disability, it is a choice to be fat. Any other case there is an underlying reason which would be the disability.

Also it isn't a global problem, it's a first world problem, and the nations we subsidize, so let them starve. China will go back to them with belts and roads initiatives. The UN is still subsidizing the Taliban, though the US officially pulled out most of our funding. They'll be fine. If not just watch some Team America and ask when we became the world police anyway.

To be fat is not a choice, to say fat is.
Being fat is also unhealthy, not just unsightly (although there are exceptions to aesthetics).
Being fat is a medical condition in which the body has excess fat. The purpose of fat is to provide nutrients and energy to the body in difficult and hungry times.
If that fat is not used, it becomes excessive and unsightly, affecting many of the body's functions, movement difficulties, fatigue, increased risk of heart attack, impaired blood circulation, increased risk of stroke, skin deformation, breathing difficulties, excessive sweating, increased risk of diabetes, ligament and joint problems, CANCER, infertility and pregnancy complications, increases the risk of depression and anxiety, GOUT,...

Getting rid of cancel culture would be a great start. This body positivity movement has cancel culture as its foundation.

I don't understand how it's promoted these days. Models used to look slim, fit, and attractive. Now they just choose people for DEI because the whole damn population of America is obese. It's so bad that the obesity rate has tripled from 1975 to now.

It's all the laziness and privilege. Nowadays people can't imagine riding a bike or walking anywhere. They just drive or Uber. People are using electric scooters and bikes and other stuff.

The food choices and lack of care for healthy foods is atrocious as well.

Hold corporation to higher standards. Corporations would feed people broken glass if it was cheaper and they could legally get away with it.

I remember a few years. back they had legislation put forth to reduce salt by like 10% or something in fast food. And this big uproar went up about it. It was only like 10%! And that's the point. Taste-wise you would have hardly have tasted the reduction. And it would have improved peoples health a little bit. But such are the corporations. They've got people addicted to their poison. So that these zombies fight their battle for them.

“Global burden of obesity”.

I won’t answer that ‘issue’ what I will say is we can push body positivity as in being happy & optimistic about one’s body and educating about healthy life choices to better regulate your beautiful body. Fat shaming, death threats, hostility, and bullying won’t fix anything.

Not endorsing obesity and body positivity and instead promoting healthy eating and life styles. Encourage more people to go to the gym, make personal training more accessible to people because there are a decent number of people out there who need that help at least in the beginning.

[Alexandrubaschet08]

I will say
Rationalization of unhealthy and high-calorie products.
Unfortunately, this would affect the economy, and brands do not want this.
Another solution would be the elimination of sugars and oils in certain product recipes, but again those producers will oppose.
In conclusion, self-control, discipline, will and temperance when it's time for a snack.

Well, the draft. WW3 is coming, Hoeflation get ready for Broflation.

Most young men will die in this world wide fat camp, there will literally be 3 times more young women than young men when the dust settles. Bros will be worth more as they will be more rare and needed like they once were in the before time. So I guess the terms sort of fit.

Stronger fat shaming. We've let it slide. Obviously fat people take more than their fair share of global CO2 emissions so it is important to combat that

They are CO2 pigs.

the thing is: it's not your or anyone elses place to determine what someone elses eats. so if people wanna choose to be fat, there's nothing you can do and nothing you should do. because that's their basic freedom.

[Likes2drive]

No more processed foods, more natural foods needed, better education on what to eat, portion control

[strateguy632]

Nothing wrong with processed.

[Likes2drive]

@strateguy632 it’s usually bad for you because of preservative and other chemicals

[strateguy632]

Weighing kids and punished parents for "neglect" if kid is obese.

Can't neglect a child.

[dragoblack]

Make exercise habbits trendy and have people start managing their nutritional intake, rather than counting calories.

[noohair]

If it is processed and comes in a box, it is poison.

[nolabels]

Move more, eat less.

Culling overpopulation so you have enough real food to go around
