Small Businesses Aim to Fight Obesity in 2011

LOS ANGELES, CA, January 14, 2011 (Press-News.org) With the economy down and many small business owners trying to stay afloat, some are turning towards another issue that is plaguing America, the fight against obesity in hopes of not only cashing in, but to truly make a difference. Stuck at 34% for the past 5 years, obesity was a major issue that caught the eye of the nation in 2010. Now in 2011 small business owners, online and offline are doing their part to keep the momentum going. Most of it involves educating customers on the causes of obesity and then offering products and or services to lose weight and to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

As Scott Henderson of Getting-Rid-of-Belly-Fat.com states; "Many people are starting to realize that what they have been told about losing weight in the past does not work, at least that is what the stats show." Furthermore Mr. Henderson went on to say "Teaching people and helping them to overcome obesity is the easy part, the hard part is finding food on grocery store shelves not filled with obesity causing additives." He believes that until there is a reform of the food industry practices that this small business segment will continue to thrive.

Processed food is in the opinion of many, one of the leading causes of obesity. Though authorities insist that the food on shelves is safe to eat, the sharp rise in obesity over the past decade bears a striking resemblance to the increased use of processed foods. Websites such as http://getting-rid-of-belly-fat.com inform readers of the ingredients in food that is considered to be the top culprits. They further go on to teach how one can continue to eat their favorite foods but in a far more healthy recipe. As Mr. Henderson states, "I can teach anyone how to make a spaghetti sauce that not only tastes better than anything in a jar, but is 100% more healthy with zero additives".
