"PAU GASOL SAYS SPANISH TEENS ARE NOT FIT ENOUGH"

 Obesity is a disease that involves having an excessive amount of body fat. It is very common today in child and teenagers between the ages of 7 and 15. But what are the causes and effects?

Obesity is not produced just for the fact of eating a lot of food. Many experts say that teenagers have been getting fatter because they have been exercising less, not because they have been eating more. Moreover, many children spend most of the day lying in the sofa close to the television or mobile phone.

On the other hand, obesity has very serious effects. It can increase the risk of diseases and health problems, such as heart disease, diabetes or certain types of cancer. However, there are some solutions for this issue. For example, the restricted marketing of unhealthy foods for children and policies to increase physical activity at schools.

All in all, obesity is a big problem that many teenagers suffer and it can have very serious health problems for the human body, so in my opinion the best thing is try to eat a balanced diet and do exercise regularly.
