The article by\u00a0Bluher mainly seeks to\u00a0discuss the prevalence of obesity in the world for\u00a0<\/p>\n
the past fifty years.\u00a0It\u00a0points out how obesity is the most health challenge since it\u00a0<\/p>\n
increases the risk of contracting other conditions such as diabetes,\u00a0hypertension, stroke<\/p>\n
and cancer.\u00a0Additionally, the author connects the disease to other external factors such as\u00a0<\/p>\n
lack of unemployment,\u00a0reduced social-economic activity and social disadvantages.<\/p>\n
Different prevention strategies to reduce the rate of obesity are also discussed in the\u00a0<\/p>\n
article.\u00a0The article also points out the increased prevalence of obesity in\u00a0countries\u00a0<\/p>\n
across the globe and illustrates how the change in the global food system together with\u00a0<\/p>\n
the sedentary behavior\u00a0has\u00a0been the main drivers of the disease.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The article\u00a0mainly\u00a0strives to create\u00a0a distinction betweenmetabolically healthy obesity<\/p>\n
(MHO)\u00a0and unhealthy obesity.\u00a0Through research and observation, the article illustrates\u00a0<\/p>\n
that individuals with\u00a0MHO\u00a0have a low risk of developingcardiometabolic abnormalities\u00a0<\/p>\n
unlike individuals with unhealthy obesity.\u00a0The article also points out that lipid\u00a0<\/p>\n
metabolism and normal glucose are the main parameters that should be used in\u00a0<\/p>\n
diagnosing MHO.\u00a0Additionally, the article points out the advantages of MHO as lowering\u00a0<\/p>\n
ectopic fat,\u00a0beta-cell function, increased insulin sensitivity and cardiorespiratory fitness.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, despite the advantages of MHO, the article recommends that it should also be\u00a0<\/p>\n
given special attention.<\/p>\n

doi: 10.1016\/j.metabol.2018.09.005<\/p>\n
This article explains the\u00a0epidemiology\u00a0of obesity in the world since 1980. Through a\u00a0<\/p>\n
detailed\u00a0research study, the article gives several conclusions about the condition. An\u00a0<\/p>\n
explanation on how obesity has increased in both sexes, different geographical localities,\u00a0<\/p>\n
ethnicities and social-economic statuses have been discussed in the article.\u00a0However, the\u00a0<\/p>\n
article\u00a0makes an exception on how the prevalence of the disease varies,\u00a0where\u00a0<\/p>\n
developed countries have recorded low rates\u00a0than developing countries and\u00a0older people\u00a0<\/p>\n
and women\u00a0have recorded high rates of the disease.\u00a0Additionally, the article illustrates\u00a0<\/p>\n
how the Body Mass Index (BMI) is used to determine obesity in epidemiological studies<\/p>\n
in as much as it has a low sensitivity. Moreover, the article concludes by recommending\u00a0<\/p>\n
that special\u00a0attention be dedicated to the management of obesity and come up with\u00a0<\/p>\n
interventions for control and management.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The main aim of this article is to explain why\u00a0obesity is a disease\u00a0through different\u00a0<\/p>\n
scientific reviews.\u00a0It defines obesity as a chronic inflammatory disease with a\u00a0<\/p>\n
multifactorial\u00a0pathology.\u00a0It further gives the aggravating consequences of the disease and\u00a0<\/p>\n
points out the\u00a0importance of diagnosing the\u00a0disease at an early stage for easy treatment\u00a0<\/p>\n
and control\u00a0of\u00a0other diseases such as cancer, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.<\/p>\n
Additionally, the\u00a0article recommends the Body Mass Index (BMI) as the most suitable\u00a0<\/p>\n
tool for assessing\u00a0body fat and controlling it to reduce chances of contracting the obesity\u00a0<\/p>\n
disease.\u00a0Moreover, the article also encourages the adoption of all necessary possible\u00a0<\/p>\n
strategies\u00a0that can combat obesity and reduce the treatment and social costs of obesity.<\/p>\n

The article\u2019s main aim is to project the prevalence level of\u00a0severe\u00a0and adult obesity\u00a0in the\u00a0<\/p>\n
US by the year 2030.\u00a0The study incorporates the estimate and self-reporting methods\u00a0to\u00a0<\/p>\n
come up with different results and conclusions.\u00a0BMI data of adults\u00a0that\u00a0took part in the\u00a0<\/p>\n
survey\u00a0is\u00a0presented and later\u00a0analyzed.\u00a0The results indicate that\u00a0by\u00a02030,\u00a0nearly\u00a0one in\u00a0<\/p>\n
two individuals will be having obesity\u00a0and the prevalence rate will not be less than 50%\u00a0<\/p>\n
in\u00a0all the states.\u00a0Additionally, the results also indicate that more women and low-income\u00a0<\/p>\n
adults will be at a high risk of contracting the disease.\u00a0Moreover, the article concludes by\u00a0<\/p>\n
giving different recommendations that will help in reducing the risk of the increasing\u00a0<\/p>\n
levels of obesity among Americans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
