| | '''Obesity''' is a medical classification regarding an extreme level of excessive body weight. It results from overeating and often bad dietary habits. More than two-thirds of [[American]]s are overweight or obese, and those between ages 40 and 59 are mostly likely to suffer from obesity. An example of obesity is low-ranking [[Opposition to Donald Trump|anti-Trumper]] presidential candidate [[Chris Christie]], who turns 61 in September 2023. Part of [[political correctness]] is to try to eliminate use of the words "fat", "obese", and "overweight".<ref>https://www.acsh.org/news/2022/03/30/woke-science-denial-social-justice-comes-obesity-and-other-harmful-language-16213</ref> | | '''Obesity''' is a medical classification regarding an extreme level of excessive body weight.

| | Food is a poor hobby ([[prayer]] and the [[Bible]] are far better), and snacking during the day and particularly late at night will put on unwanted pounds. So will a poor diet that is not based on lots of daily vegetables. Eliminating foods with "added sugar" (every packaged food must disclose its added sugar content) will improve one's diet, as added sugar causes an immediate blood sugar spike and can lead to or worsen [[diabetes]]. This can result in a blood sugar spike. Obtaining the daily recommended amount of [[Vitamin A]] from food alone is a simple way to convert to a healthy, weight-losing diet. | | Food is a poor hobby ([[prayer]] and the [[Bible]] are far better), and snacking during the day and particularly late at night will put on unwanted pounds.
