The document discusses obesity, nutrition, and prevention. It defines obesity as excessive body weight. Nutrition plays a major role in obesity, and preventing obesity involves eating a balanced, colorful diet with moderate portions from each food group, getting 60 minutes of activity per day, improving sleep, and reducing stress. The authors taught students about healthy lifestyles by making snack books and showing exercise activities. MyPlate can help people track their food intake and physical activity to make healthy changes. Portion sizes have increased over the years, so the recommended portions for each food group are listed. Fruit and vegetable juices contain more sugar than whole fruits and vegetables. Obesity is linked to many negative health effects and costs over $150 billion each year.
Should Schools Ban Junk Food and Sodas?
The document discusses whether schools should ban junk food and sodas. Some argue a ban is unnecessary and an overreaction, while others feel it could help address the obesity problem among today's teenagers. Those against a ban cite reasons like junk food in moderation is okay and a ban could lead students to smuggle food. However, the author agrees schools should ban these items because unhealthy snacks and drinks are bad for students and schools should help kids become smarter and healthier, though some schools rely on vending machine money which they could replace through other fundraisers like a Turkey Trot.

Argumentative essay final draft
Schools should ban serving fast food and other unhealthy options in their cafeterias for students' health and well-being. Consuming fast food and junk food regularly can negatively impact students' health by increasing risks of diseases and obesity. It can also influence students to develop unhealthy eating habits and preferences over time if that is primarily what is available and normalized at school. While personal freedom of choice is important, schools have a responsibility to protect students and establish healthy environments and behaviors during their critical years of growth and development.
Obesity
Obesity in teenagers is a growing problem in the United States, with over 33% of teenagers now obese. Being overweight or obese increases teenagers' risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke, and early death. Research shows that teenagers aged 10-13 who are obese have an 80% chance of being obese as adults. Some of the key causes of teenage obesity include family history of obesity, unhealthy eating habits like fast food consumption, stress, lack of exercise, and medical conditions requiring steroid medications. To address teenage obesity, experts recommend making long-term changes to diet and exercise habits, including eating a balanced diet, engaging in regular physical activity, and receiving family support.
Fast food effects
Fast food consumption leads to various health issues like cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, and more. The fast food industry uses techniques like bright colors and artificial flavors to make their food more appealing and attract customers, especially children. Parents may be influenced by fast food advertisements claiming their kids' meals are healthy. In reality, eating fast food regularly can negatively impact physical health and contribute to childhood obesity.
Nutritional facts about junk foods
Junk foods contain various toxic chemicals like monosodium glutamate, artificial sweeteners, color additives, and preservatives that can negatively impact health. Excessive consumption of monosodium glutamate may lead to brain damage and artificial sweeteners have been linked to hyperactivity in children. Color additives and some preservatives have also been associated with increased cancer risk according to research. The WHO has called on countries to limit junk food marketing to children given these potential health risks.

Extended - Prevention of Childhood Obesity
Childhood obesity affects over 12 million children in the United States and has tripled over the past 30 years. The major contributing factors to obesity are inactivity, increased consumption of high-calorie foods, and genetics. To help prevent childhood obesity, parents should focus on improving nutrition, limiting screen time to less than 2 hours per day, and ensuring children engage in at least 1 hour of physical activity daily.

Junkandfastfoodpresentation
Junk food refers to food with high calories from sugar or fat but little nutritional value. Some popular junk foods include fast food from chains and fried snacks like samosas and fries. Studies show that 60% of people suffer from diabetes and obesity due to overeating junk food. Junk food is attractive due to its convenience, taste, and incomplete labeling of nutritional information. However, overconsumption can lead to lack of energy, poor concentration, vitamin deficiencies, obesity, and increased risk of diseases like heart attacks and hypertension. Moderation and balancing junk foods with nutritious options is recommended.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
