Description
Obesity is a significant issue that is known to cause many chronic illnesses/diseases. Why are obesity rates so high in the United States, specifically among young adults and adults? Are the habits of college students building a base of bad habits that lead to obesity? In order to answer these questions, students of SUNY Binghamton were surveyed to find more about their eating, sleeping, and exercise patterns. These three key factors will provide a basis on the overall health of students as they are the most important in obesity prevention. Results are expected to support the notion that the habits developed by college students are leading to overall poor health as a country. Additionally, results may show student’s healthy habits worsen as they progress through university.
