      It would be very good if we could prevent obesity or make people have a healthier life style…..failing that…maybe being able to stop the development of diseases such as diabetes and heart disease in individuals who are already obese

      I think it would be fantastic if we could make the nation healthier by reducing obesity. So much money is spent through the NHS treating diseases associated with physical inactivity. This money could be invested into so many more positive things to improve our lives… Just being a little bit more active each day can have huge effects on our health. With over half the UK obese, I think we need to acknowledge that obesity is a real problem and then look into ways we can tackle to problem
