CNN:"Missisipi Gov. Phil Bryant signed a law preventing counties, districts and towns from enacting rules that limit portion sizes. It simply is not the role of the government to micro-regulate citizens' dietary decisions," the governor wrote about his decision. ""The responsibility for one's personal health depends on individual choices about a proper diet and appropriate exercise."
Look at the responsibility of your state's citizens. dead last in 50 states, lol |

Ee healthy crusade valla okka vidham ga poor kids ke bokka. One of the reasons school menus are high in calories is because school systems know many kids aren't getting the calories they need at home...so the school food is intentionally high in calories to help them |

Anand_n:Very old news(2010 stats below from CDC)- percentage of people smoking is on a downward trend still- remember reading they hit an all time low in 2013
good to know .. I was in the dark on this .. Dma:If you look around, you would notice that most of the people that smoke are in their 50s and up (general percentage). percentage of smokers in 30s and younger is much less.
emo .. never ever googled on this subject .. kaani when I was in US .. I used to think .. these guys smoke so much ani .. may be bcoz I lived in cold areas like Midwest and East Coast most of the time ..

Katthi:Obesity is related to fastfood centers.. Fastfood centers lo thini nenu obesity tagginchukunta ante ela?
Slow and steady...I like what I am seeing They took the soda machines out of schools, they changed menus in schools (its work in progress)..work lo incentives for weight reduction istunnaru - I have seen a huge change in the cuisine offered at work too - much healthier than it used to be a few years ago.. The biggest issue is cheaper healthier alternatives to fastfood - avi available avute we will see better trends ..

A lot. This was achieved thru Scool education. Back in 60s and 70s, every kid used to smoke starting from their school days. But, in late 70s and 80s, they started a campaign promoting that smoking is socially bad habit and hence, slowly the kids that are in schools during 80s and later did not get habituated to smoking. If you look around, you would notice that most of the people that smoke are in their 50s and up (general percentage). percentage of smokers in 30s and younger is much less. |
