Editorial Let’s Move spreads smart, healthy habits

President Obama has announced that this will be a year of action. This just so happens to coincide with the efforts of another prominent Obama, First Lady Michelle. Her “Let’s Move” campaign has suffered its share of potholes, but it is exactly the kind of initiative our country must embrace now more than ever. The U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that more than 35 percent of adults in the United States are obese, compared to 17 percent of American children and adolescents plagued by obesity. Many regard the CDC’s classifi- cation of “obese” or “overweight” as indicators of poor health. A quick online search will prove that many bloggers, self-proclaimed nutritionists and even peer-reviewed science articles claim that people can be both overweight and healthy. As with any claims about a large population of people, though, these conclusions are not absolute. Any particular person is still much more likely to be unhealthy when he or Printing credits she is significantly overweight and when we are discussing national issues it is the general rule, not exceptions, with which we should be most concerned. That concern has to be taken in the context of the problem, though. With need major change an issue as sensitive and personal as individual health, small, broad steps are the way for our government to go.
