Is The Concern Over if US Obesity Rates Stabilize?

New York, NY – April 25, 2012 — According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s latest report, obesity levels in the United States seem to have stabilized.  However, over 33% of American adults and 17% of children were obese in 2009-2010.  Additionally, another 33% of adults and 15% of children and teens are overweight but not obese.  In all, there are over 180 million Americans who are either overweight or obese.

“Considering obesity is linked to many different chronic diseases and these diseases become more prevalent with age, even if obesity rates do not rise any further, the associated health problems most definitely will,” say boomer generation health experts Dian Griesel, Ph.D., and Tom Griesel, authors of the new books TurboCharged: Accelerate Your Fat Burning Metabolism, Get Lean Fast and Leave Diet and Exercise Rules in the Dust (April 2011, BSH) and The TurboCharged Mind(January 2012, BSH).

“Obesity rates have soared from about 15% in the mid-1970s right through the end of the century, for reasons that are still debated,” adds Tom.  “The cost of healthcare, both on a national and individual basis, has been skyrocketing and will continue to get worse unless this trend is reversed.  The requirements for a healthy body are the same for everyone.  Every individual needs to take responsibility for their own health and that of their children.  It will not happen any other way.”
