Nebraska – 34.1% Obesity Rate

Nebraska was one of the states with high obesity and overweight rates, and it had been steadily increasing for some time. The numbers have changed continuously between 2013 to 2018, and one-third of the residents were classified as obese. It was apparent that Nevada should address the issue and to implement rules for the residents. An example would be to facilitate isolated programs for lifestyle changes.

Nevada, similar to the other states, was also suffering from wider residents’ waists, and it was unfortunate that the statistics were gradually increasing. It was correlated with increasing diabetes and heart disease cases. It seemed like nothing was working for the state even though Nevada had implemented several obesity policies. And yet, Nevada was one of the states with the most nutritional standards for the kids’ school lunches.
