    What the Health is a documentary on Netflix that explains the health benefits of an all plant based diet. It is a very biased documentary. It tries to get you to go Vegan. No animal products what so ever.

    Some might say my mom is a bit of a health nut, and she definitely avoids feeding us processed foods and GMO products, but she doesn't cook vegan. The fibers and proteins packed inside of organic and dieted (grass fed) meats are very important for a balanced nutrient intake. Obviously, I agree more with the writer than the show producer.

    One third of children in the U. S. is overweight or obese, and this number is continuing to rise. Children have fewer weight-related health and medical problems than adults. However, overweight children are at high risk of becoming overweight adolescents and adults, placing them at risk of developing chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes later in life.

    Obesity in children in our country happens to have the highest percentage in comparison with other countries. I think we, as parents and we, as responsible adults can change this. We should have in schools mandatory pysical education classes, at least once a week. and it would still make a difference. Also, the school snacks or lunches, the menu needs adjustment and changed to a more nutritional one, not one that is high in calories. Now, I know that kids love fast food, but if that can be limited I think would change something. Sometimes us, the parents we are making this mistake, being in a hurry out of convenience, we buy some fast food and dinner ready. Of course, the child loves it and everyone is happy, but if we do this over and over, the result is child obesity and health issues related to that. The change needs to start with us, as adults in the choices we make.

    Diet and activity is so important especially when it comes to children. Adults are supposed to engage children in daily activities and teach them while they are young to have a clean eating diet. The U.S. definitely has the highest rates when it comes to obesity. With all the fast and processed foods around it just makes it convenient for us all to buy.

    Parents who let their children become obese are abusive. Also these so called "healthy" menus at schools are often nothing more than calorie restrictions. For example, my former high school Ironwood often only served a slice of pizza and that is it and charged $2.75. Students would instead by 2 slices of pizza from vendors for a dollar each. Also many students just skip lunch all together and snack after they get home from school. Another problem is the budget. Cafeteria workers make very little money and have a small amount of money to spend,. As a result cafeterias serve junk food because it is cheaper. Also many parents use the busy excuse to be neglectful of their children's health.
  • che2146091 on 29 Jan 17
     
    To say that parents who let their children become obese are abusive have never struggled with weight. But that too is a generalization. There are so many children that are on fighting diseases and are given medication that has side effects of weight gain.One of these drugs is steroids. My daughter is fighting several different battles she was born with. She is on steroids, by the doctor, to fight one of the diseases. She is also a love vegetables and fruits. She swims every week. She takes tap, ballet, jazz and gymnastics. She is overweight, but very fit. Some diseases are ruthless. To say that being overweight is because you eat pizza and that you are unhealthy is just wrong. There are many ways that you can be unhealthy. Looks can be deceiving. Don't judge that book until you read it

    High blood pressure at such a young age is horrible. The parents are not the only ones at fault but our society is at fault for allowing to go as far as it has gone. As "aus2127741", states about the school systems lack of nutritional value is absolutely correct, it being disgusting.
  • cheyennehorne on 29 Jan 17
     
    Obesity in children is often sad to see but it is becoming very prevalent in American society. In my opinion, a mixture of an extremely sedentary lifestyle as well as poor nutritional choices at school and at home contribute largely to this issue. Because children now have a multitude of indoor activities that don't necessarily get them on their feet and a lack of overall knowledge on what is a decent, balanced diet I'm not really surprised to see this issue skyrocketing.

    Obesity is still rising especially because of the pandemic that we are going through which made families quarantine for a long time. It is very sad that the obesity rates only have increased.

    ADD/ ADHD treatment starts at home and medication should not be the only tool used. Children should have a routine set up, adequate sleep, and a nutritional diet. Behavioral and emotional therapy should be used weather a child is on medication or not.

    Lots of treatment options are available for the ones who are suffering from these disorders. One is psychotherapy by talking to a psychologist, about 50% of these patients are suffering from depression. Another kind of treatment is a cognitive behavioral therapy where you set goals and helps change unhealthy thought patterns. Nutritional counseling is also a treatment by eating healthier to maintain your body healthy. However, some patients need a medically supervised diet to get back to a healthy weight.

    Eating disorders are very common in today's society, but there are patients who have faced eating disorders and overcome them. With the treatment of therapy, counseling, and a supervised diet, many people who suffer from eating disorders can learn how to defeat them and avoid the possibility of facing the disorder again.
  • casbautista on 04 Sep 16
     
    The scary part of eating disorders is how deadly they can be. The more a person starves themselves, the more muscles are eaten up; including the heart. I think it would interesting to see how eating disorders manifest in different cultures or minority groups. I know that eating disorders for women can be different from that of men and the method of treating that is also interesting.

    In 1998 the individual soda intake was at its highest, averaging a surprising 56.1 gallons. Six years later in 2004, carbonated soft drinks had a 7 percent decline in individual consumption. In addition, replacing regular soda with diet soda helped decrease the intake of caloric beverages an impressive 12 percent. Health problems like obesity and being overweight result from the lack of nutrients in these beverages. The widespread issues are due to high rise consumption rates of these carbonated soft drinks. Liquid candy is statistically proven to be a prime factor for excessive weight increase. A problem for our population following the increase is the Type 2 diabetes. These health issues can lead to long term illnesses and sometimes life threatening diseases such as heart attacks, strokes and cancer.

    Wow! That was very informative. I was aware of the issue and even was informed about different resources to contact in order to minimize the contact one has with law enforcement, but I did not know about the alternatives to imprisonment.

    This article is very informative. The prison system is in much need of some kind of reform. The article give a lot of logical suggestions of how the government could start reforming the system.

    There is a long list of issues our nation has with prison. It's unsanitary, the food doesn't support a healthy diet. The lack of safety is a huge concern. This website explains many issues with American prison and list possibilities to change it.
  • sonyacorona on 29 Jan 18
     
    The detrimental impact of imprisonment, not only on individuals but on families and communities also need to be taken into account. Central to the arguments to promote prison reforms is a human rights argument.

    This article lists 10 reasons as to why GMOs are causing problems and should be avoided. These reasons range from the rising health issues in America, the effects GMO crops are having on the environment, as well as the biotechnology push the government is giving to the FDA, resulting in a blind eye being turned towards the testing and safety of GMO products.

    GMO's are very unhealthy to a human beings diet. Numerous health problems increased after GMO's were introduced in 1996. The percentage of American's with three or more chronic illnesses increased from seven percent to thirteen percent in nine years. GMO's will be used for the rest of our lives.

    Food productivity is a very debatable issue in the Unites States. Food productivity involves hunger in america. Food politics involves any health care and medicine. Food politics also involves other peoples diets and how they are influenced. It also involves childhood obesity.

    I enjoyed reading this article because it was very informative. Not only did the article provide statistics in regards to how much water we need for our everyday food intake but it also allows the reader to understand how much money is put into making that food for us to eat. It focuses on the fact that switching to a vegan like or vegetarian diet worldwide would be significantly beneficial to our growing population.

    This article had interesting but scary statistics. Especially the statistic on how much water it takes to produce certain food items. I never realized just how much water society uses to function. In addition, humans are reaching the carrying capacity of the world far too fast. The author makes good suggestions for how to fix this issue. The solutions are not only answering the problem of a food shortage but also climate change.

    This was honestly eye opening seeing how much water is used everyday for even the most simplest of things. Reading about how much water it takes to produce food and how much of ends up being wasted in alarming. I recommend this article for anyone who has a topic that relates to this social issues at it provided in depth details on the matter. It's crazy knowing how much water we use daily without knowing how valuable it is, especially now.

    The article is so true about water scarcity being our demise, it will be such an catastrophe for the food crisis to strike especially in Arizona. The drought plays a huge part in supporting water scarcity, it dries out our lands and empties out the rivers. There are some good solutions to how to resist against climate change.
