1. How has modern society changed to contribute to increasing adult obesity rates in the U.S.?
Modern Society has substantially influenced the rising obesity rates among adults in the U.S. due to lifestyle modifications, notably the increasing occurrence of sedentary activities and the intake of ultra-processed foods. Technological advancements have resulted in an increase in sedentary occupations and recreational activities, including prolonged use of computers, smartphones, and television (Piercy et al., 2018). The pervasive accessibility of fast food, calorie-dense snacks, and sugary drinks has exacerbated unhealthy eating patterns, facilitating excessive caloric intake (Piercy et al., 2018). These alterations have fostered an atmosphere favorable to weight growth and obesity, profoundly affecting adult health.
