2nd blog post
The most interesting source i have found so far would be Obesity Prevention and Public Health. There is not one specific author that wrote this book but it was edited by David Crawford, and Robert W. Jeffery. This book is interesting because it contains mostly research analysis that was conduct in different studies from different universities. In includes different causes and approaches to obesity. This book covers many different topics dealing with obesity for example the following; population approaches to promote healthful eating behaviors, and the role of socio-cultural factors in the obesity epidemic. Since my topic is on Obesity as a disease the variety in this book will help with the research portion because most on-line sources are just causes and effects of obesity. My question still remains the same after looking into this source.

So your question is, "Is obesity a disease or a condition?" Are you finding that people are debating what exactly obesity is? Have you found research that helps you define "disease" and "condition"?
