While our society increasingly tolerates obese people, however, many ideas remain completely false about their true situation.
For this reason, the British Psychological Society (BPS) has set itself the mission of increasing people’s understanding of the complexity of the subject and highlighting the problematic relationship between health and obesity.
The BPS has done this by publishing a new report that explains the real sources of the problem and suggests the best ways to address it…
A hard choice.
The British professional association blames it on growing up in an environment that is almost inactive and does not encourage physical activity.
The British Psychological Society points out that obesity is not by choice and that simply blaming a person for their looks is quite shocking. Although the association does not support the classification of obesity as a disease as the World Health Organization (WHO) has done, it continues to push for improved treatments for and debates on obesity.
