What really annoys me, and what I think to be a fundamental problem with regards to tackling to obesity issue, is the state of the economy. You walk into a super market and the cheapest meals are the unhealthy ready meals which are packed with calories and fat, compared to the healthy, natural food choices which have exorbitant prices. In our current economy, families are having to save every penny, therefore are really struggling to find the money to buy those healthy options, meaning that their economic position would force them to buy the unhealthy options. As well as this, gym memberships are incredibly high, as is hiring a tennis court etc; admittedly they have the free option of going for a run around the block, but sometimes some locations don't offer either desirable or safe runinng routes, and running outside is incredibly weather dependant. The fluctuating weather in England is not a great advocate for outdoor running, especially during the winter months. It would not be uncommon to find the majority of households in poorer parts of the country with an obesity issue, which would be less significant in the wealthier regions, so I strongly believe that, in order to solve our obesity issue we need to tackle the economic issue.
