According to surveys, 61 percent of Americans,

government is worried because too much weight contrib 'utes 10 diabetes, heart disease, and other illnesses

Some people blame the food industry and advertisers for the nation's weight problem They say food makers wont people to eat when they're not hungry and keep eating when they're full

But food manufacturers say it's not their fault that many Americans are overweight People can

free, and sugar free

No matter who's right, it is true: People in the United States are geffing fatter

They simply eat100much As a result, health departments in the United States are laking action For example, New York's health department has asked restaurants

to use healthful ingredients in foods Many schools in the United States no longer have soda

or candy vending machines, and school cafeterias are offering more healthful menus

Health experts agree thaI being a healthy nation is everybody's responsibility, that the best way to solve ihe problem is through education

Apublic education campaign on food and health would help educate people about whallhey

e t, forcing food manufacturers to offer more

wh ole s ome and healthful food choices
