I don't think its as black and white as that. Its a mixture of the two. Genetics, disease, etc. may make you more prone to it, but your lifestyle may end up being the determining factor as far as if you are or aren't.

well i believe it's more of a lifestyle choice cause there are people who are born on the heavier side of the scale but yet when they grow up they become slim and skinny. The main factors that contribute to obesity among people are exercise and food choices... If everyone exercises and make healthier food choices then obesity wont be an health issue all over the world!

I think its a little of both. Genetics do play a role in your body type and height/weight ratio, but lifestyle is also important.
I don't think wealth really has much to do with it. There are plenty of examples of the rich who are also overweight even though they have better access to medical care/trainers etc. Also you would think that being poor would make you thin, as you can't afford food, but that's also not always the case (especially in America!)

Lifestyle contributes to obesity in some ways but I believe that the major factor that contributes to obesity is genetics. So I suppose personal issues as you put it.

I think it's a little of both. You have people saying alot of it, But the real choice is changing both. I have a family with heart , diabetics, obese problems(big time).But I will not let them think I have to be like them. I stay thin for me.It's healthier for everyone I will live happier.

genetics is the least most cause of obesity. recent polls have shown that only 15% of the US population gets regular exercise.
so it's very easy to see why 60% of the population here in the US is severely overweight.

Simpson G has some very stable recommendations all are massive subjects of dialogue right this moment. i could additionally recommend evaluating the Nursing training between the united kingdom and us of a. US nurses are paid incredibly greater $$, held in greater regard, yet do no longer require as lots training. additionally, nurses are infamous in "eating their youthful" . we are seen nurtures and healers, yet we abuse our new nurses to the element that an excellent style of latest nurses bypass away the occupation.
