We are what we eat! Obesity is the great problem nowadays. Many people are suffering from this disease. It leads to the great number of deaths. It is very weird that government of many countries does not consider it to be the danger for the population and does not take any measures. Today morning I watched the performance of Jamie Oliver on TED talks and his speech really impressed me. He was talking about the extent of the problem in USA. He showed pictures of children who are suffering from obesity. Government, schools and even parents should be blind not to notice this problem. So the main idea of my message: we can't change the situation in the whole world but we can care about more conscientious nutrition of our parents/ friends/ children/ family. Just see what they eat and what you eat. Choose healthy food: more fruits, vegetables and greens. We are what we eat!

We are what we eat!

 

Obesity is a serious problem nowadays. Many people are suffering from this disease, which leads to a great number of deaths. It is very strange that the governments of many countries does not consider it to be a danger for the population and does not take any measures to curb it. This morning I was watching a presentation by Jamie Oliver on TED talks and his speech really impressed me. He was talking about the extent of the problem in the USA. He showed the audience pictures of children who are suffering from obesity. The government, schools and even parents must be blind not to notice this problem.


So the main idea of my message is this: we can't change the situation in the whole world but we can at least care about proper nutrition for our parents, friends, children and family. Just look at what they eat and what you yourself eat. Choose healthy food: more fruits, vegetables and greens. We are what we eat!

 

I've made corrections just for flow and to make the sentences seem more natural. I see that articles (<em>a/the</em>) are giving you trouble, but they're surprisingly easy to fix.

Yes you are right, its the greatest problem, but there are so many other problems which government has to handle. I think problems like this can be settled since school years, bringing up children in a proper way, and family has a great role. Lets to look at the problem from another side. There are so many people starving. If we can not constrain our eating, lets to reduce it in order to share it.
