  2. The obesity is a desease that affects the whole body also affects health systems. It's considered a desease that contribute to other deseases. For me it's also a social problem causing high costs in the health system. Legislator should take action to regulate and prevent obesity. From genetically side is considered a disease that is treatable.

    1. Very interesting Carolina. Did your study offer bariatric surgery to the local population or just study those who had the surgery?

    2. Only the study was conducted in patients who already had surgery performed bariatric surgery is not offered as an option to combat obesity in all public hospitals. This interesting article presents one of the best expert in bariatric surgery in Mexico http://www.scielo.org.mx/pdf/bmim/v65n6/v65n6a13.pdf

    My opinion is that the obesity is a disease multi factor, when the principal problem is endocrine posteriotity the increased consumption of fast food, and the people it does not exercise.

  10. I listen the stressed words and I find challenging to pronounce many of there for example: all, always, alive, also, almost, better, best, brother, bottle, burn, bit, begin, both, but, cut, cat,cramps, river, travel, very, voice,word,warm, happen, happening, starting, we, went,plane, lie, low, end, ending, when,get, getting,meet, men, much,most, interesting,word, building, what, where, when, wich, why, while, with, woman,
    I think is too important practice all the vocabulary in this way improve to pronounce.

  11. I agree with the video because I believe that if obesity is a disease that is affecting the entire population, we can see from adults and children. At present there are drugs used to counteract overweight, unfortunately, you do not have a control with a nutritionist or a doctor specializing in weight control. Obesity in Mexico ranks first, this is worrisome because they develop chronic degenerative diseases, which has become a major theme in units of primary care.

  12. The obesity is considered just part of a disease includes what we call metabolic síndrome.However the obesity alone causes many health problems at an early age.
    the obesity also can be for many reasons not just eating habits,
    There are hormonal,genetic, tumor problems and of course the food are know as eating habits an unhealty exercise.
    It remain a cause but has everything to be a disease with multiple origins
