Have we, as a society, normalized obesity? It seems like processed foods are ubiquitous, and with so many convenient, easy-to-access options available, along with the increasing visibility of individuals with larger body types, it feels like we’ve come to accept this as the norm. What do you think?

One thought on “As a nation, have we normalised fat?”

  1. It’s an interesting topic that touches on various societal, cultural, and health aspects. In many ways, our relationship with food and body image has shifted significantly in recent years. The prevalence of processed foods and convenience options has indeed made it easier for people to consume high-calorie diets, which can contribute to larger body sizes.

    On one hand, normalizing diverse body sizes can foster a more inclusive society and promote body positivity, encouraging people to embrace who they are. On the other hand, it’s essential to be aware of the health implications that can accompany higher rates of obesity, including increased risks for various diseases.

    Balancing body acceptance with a focus on health is crucial. Promoting nutritious eating and active lifestyles while respecting individuality can help create a more holistic approach to health and well-being. Ultimately, it’s about finding a middle ground where we can celebrate diversity in body types while also encouraging healthier choices. What do you think is the best way to navigate this conversation?
