"I want to thank Mrs Ries for her work on this report. Many important things have been said about choosing the right diet and living a more active lifestyle, so I will just mention a few of the less obvious but no less important factors in obesity.
MSG, which is now in many savoury snacks and processed foods, is increasingly being linked to obesity, especially when eaten by children in their early years of development. Similarly, Aspartame, an artificial sweetener found in many sweet processed foods, is linked with appetite disturbance. Ironically, Aspartame found in many foods labelled ‘diet’ or ‘lite’ can make those who ingest it want to eat more. Both are synthetic chemicals that work by exciting the taste buds. These flavour enhancers can also dull the taste buds, making natural un-enhanced foods unattractive.
Lack of sleep in children and teenagers has also been identified by a major recent UK study as a primary cause of obesity because of the effect it has on hormones and on metabolism, and a secondary cause because feeling tired encourages kids to snack and discourages them from being physically active."@en1
