How should we combat the rising problem of obesity in our society?

Firstly, acknowledge the scale of the issue and show that you understand why obesity is so concerning and especially how it affects society and the pressures a more obese population places on the NHS. Then, divide your solution into two parts: prevention and treatment. In this case, prevention would target education and taxation or other deterrents, while treatment would focus on how you might motivate obese patients into losing weight. Conclude by including examples of existing government led programs and their efficacy.
