10 Possible Causes of the Obesity Epidemic
It's well accepted that reduced physical activity and fast food are linked to obesity. But the evidence that these are the main causes of obesity is largely circumstantial. To stimulate debate, experts suggest 10 other possible causes of obesity, outlined in the International Journal of Obesity.
1. Sleep debt. Getting too little sleep can increase body weight. Today, many get less shut-eye than ever.
2. Pollution. Hormones control body weight. And many of today's pollutants affect our hormones.
3. Air conditioning. You have to burn calories if your environment is too hot or too cold for comfort. But more people than ever live and work in temperature-controlled homes and offices.
4. Decreased smoking. Smoking reduces weight. People smoke much less than they used to.
5. Medicine. Many different drugs including contraceptives, steroid hormones, diabetes drugs, some antidepressants, and blood pressure drugs can cause weight gain. Use of these drugs is on the upswing.
6. Population age, ethnicity. Middle-aged people and Hispanic-Americans tend to be more obese than young European-Americans. Americans are getting older and more Hispanic.
7. Older moms. There's some evidence that the older a woman is when she gives birth, the higher her child's risk of obesity. Women are giving birth at older and older ages.
8. Ancestors' environment. Some influences may go back two generations. Environmental changes that made a grandparent obese may "through a fetal driven positive feedback loop" visit obesity on the grandchildren.
9. Obesity linked to fertility. There's some evidence obese people are more fertile than lean ones. If obesity has a genetic component, the percentage of obese people in the population should increase.
10. Unions of obese spouses. Obese women tend to marry obese men, and if obesity has a genetic component, there will be still more obese people in the next generation.
These other contributing factors deserve more attention and study. Even more explanations include: a fat-inducing virus; increases in childhood depression; less consumption of dairy products; and hormones used in agriculture. What do you think can be attributed to the epidemic?
With all of this in mind I do know state of mind is key. You control your own destiny.
Take THE 90 DAY CHALLENGE. You don't have to be over weight again.

Often people list free things on Craigslist or donate it to The Salvation Army, or charity and church resale stores.
But Craigslist isn’t a perfect solution, since you will get a swamped with emails and need to deal with lots of responders . Too often the winner doesn’t show up at all. And most charities and churches say they’d rather just get cash.
Listia makes it all a lot better. click here Users don’t bid cash for items, instead they bid points that they get for free for signing up, listing items and referring friends. So in the end the winner is the person who wanted the item the most and was willing to bid the most points. The listing member doesn’t have to deal with a flood of emails, and the no-show risk is kept to a manageable minimum. And if a Listia member really wants an item but doesn’t have the points, they can purchase more. That’s where the business model kicks in, and the of course, value to charities.
Points can be purchased at a rate of $5 for 3,300 points. And if a member decides to donate the proceeds to charity, the charity gets 60% of any paid for points used by the winner.
If this sounds just too complicated, just peek at this live listing for a Nikon digital camera: click here Listia is fully working however a lot of features are still baking in the oven. The selection of charities is limited with more being added regularly. And soon Listia will let you add your own favorite charities and even give accumulated points to them. It’s a no brainer for charities to ask their supporters to use Listia to donate actual items, and Listia says they are busy creating features to accommodate the entire process.

WomVegas is truly a fun place to hang out. It is so much fun visiting with other womers who have the same interests as you but come from all over the world. BUT more important it is a place that you can do everything for FREE if you just want that or you can get highly involved and be a city director, opal or topaz and build a great income from your efforts. Tim the owner has so many ways to help you do this, it is amazing.
