I am trying to stay away from any HFCS, Aspartame, and any other un-natural sugar substitute. I am wondering if there is any scientific proof of any ill effects to health? I’m not talking about just correlations between HFCS and obesity, because sugar makes people obese too.
can you list some effects of eating junk food/fast food. i need it for my health project.. i know that diabetes, obesity are 2 but i cant think of anymore. just give me some ideas/conditions.
Thanks in advance
Did you not read the details its Af..
im not trying to loose weight i need information for my health project…duh!
Thanks to everyone who replied… those are good points that i could include in my project.
I am in my last year of high school and am currently completely a special studies assignment for my Early Childhood studies class.
The assignment is worth 30% and requires an investigation with a survey.
My special studies is on childhood obesity focusing on children 0 to 6 years of age. It would be very helpful if any parents or guardians of overweight children
could complete this survey or answer as many questions as possible.
It is quite difficult for me to communicate with parents of obese children In person.. Obviously because of the sensitive and personal nature of the topic and if anyone
could give up a few minutes and answer these questions it would be much appreciated.
Also if you yourself were obese as a child or overweight it would be great if you too could answer this survey just by applying the questions to yourself.
note: I will delete the survey after a week and any responses to the questionnaire will be treated confidentially. Thank you.
Survey.

I am doing the research paper on obesity in America and the several factors that contribute to obesity such as; temptation or proximity to fast-food restaurants, low-income, shortage of time lack of education and perhaps even genetics depending on the amount of information i have. Another question can my research paper be cause and effect because I could use some effects of obesity such as low self-esteem, health problems and so on. if yes what else could i use?
Thank you
