Abstract:
World-wide efforts to reduce obesity amongst countries’ inhabitants have failed. A widening gap has developed between theory and practice of how to improve this unwished for situation. This research focused on bridging this gap by developing practical and workable solutions for both the short- and long-term. The principal findings and recommendations of this research include government interventions to reduce the cost of healthy food and increase the cost of unhealthy food (long-term), accept obesity as a disease and change the word to corpulence (short-term), use a multitude of options to increase the chances of success (both short-and long-term) and help individuals to change their eating habits by adopting an eat-less-but-more-often diet plan (long-term).Â
