Obesity is one problem which faces the UAE people. Around half of the Emirati people are overweight. This is a big problem and has an effect on the country.
We can divide the causes into three main parts; diet, education, and lifestyle. A lot of people like to have fast food as a favorite meal forgetting that it is oily and it affects on them. Also, the traditional food like “ Harees and Rice” has a lot of oil. With the modern life and office work, people are moving less and becoming less active. Many young people prefer to eat outside the home during the day and as we know the restaurant food is not healthy. Another point is the lack of exercise because it’s not popular although we have nice weather in winter and modern gym halls in the UAE. The education is one of the main causes. In my country many people lack knowledge about good nutrition. Also, we feed the children too much which is a problem for their health.
If we want to solve these problems we must change our culture and we must take care of ourselves. The minister of health must do awareness projects for people about fat and its effects on our life. We must be aware about which kind of food we eat and avoid fast food restaurants. Also, people must do exercises daily between 30 – 60 minutes. Young people shouldn’t eat from outside the home too much because the children will do the same in the future
In conclusion, we must take care of our health because it is the most important thing in our life. If it is gone, it will not come back again. These solutions must be used to solve this problem.
