Obesity and the Society
Obesity is a disease that feeds on several factors and introduce the person in a vicious circle that cannot easily escape. Besides the genetic and metabolic factors, we also add characteristics of the person, lifestyles and behaviors learned in the family.
But society is reflected in a contradictory message. On the one hand, encourages a sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy living and junk food, factors that have made obesity a global epidemic from an increasingly early age. Before I make this situation required superficial values like beauty and the perfect body, which seem to take more importance than their ability, honesty and talent.
With this vision as apocalyptic, the patient feels unable to cope with their condition and expect a magic solution to save him from the dismal situation in which he lives, hopes the change will make the others for him.
The company supplies the disorder and yet it condemns the patient and he took refuge in the non-acceptance of others to continue sinking into his illness. As weight increases, other symptoms start to appear dangerous, such as social isolation, low self-esteem, apathy, dependence, and so on. Inducing a person to resignation and denial of his state. The patient is not aware of his situation is not accepted and do not consider it necessary to change something, well protected from the harm of being and knowing ill.
Change the image that modern society has of the obese person and his condition is not a task from one day to another. We need a deep awareness campaign to make people understand that we face a global epidemic nature that affects billions of people and has placed the metabolic syndrome as one of the most common ailments.
However, it is you, from their small place, you can start with that. Becoming an active, useful, enterprising is the best way to demonstrate that the disease does not determine its capabilities. Tell your friends and family, keep moving and start to fight. In this unique way, is doing much for you and help your neighbors.
When you start to weight loss, lower your arms. It is not “abandoning” their obese peers, is simply regaining his life and will continue to fight for much longer.
