Obesity is such a serious concern today that health professionals have called it an epidemic. The media frequently touch on obesity and its health risks in various news and medical reports. Recently, the World Cancer Research Fund noted that the link between body fat and cancer is closer than many people realize. This series investigates the genetics of obesity, the social discrimination that obese young people encounter, obesity and self-image, and how teens handle body size issues. It covers the various mental and physical effects of being obese and how obesity is portrayed by the media. The series also offers an overview of today’s treatment options—including medications and surgeries—for weight loss. Each book presents the issues sensitively and succinctly for reports and research and offers teens strategies for dealing with obesity problems and for making healthy lifestyle choices. Read more
