Free Obesity Brochures and Posters from Obesity Action Coalition
Obesity is a problem in the United States and the Obesity Action Coalition (OAC) can give you the information on how it affects you. The OAC is offering several posters and brochures that are specifically designed to give you knowledge about obesity, the people that obesity affects, the health risks of having obesity, and more. There is a poster that has a body mass index (BMI) chart that will let you calculate your BMI and find out if you are either underweight, just the right weight, overweight, obese, or even morbidly obese. You can receive the posters and brochure simply by filling out a small form on the OAC website.
Besides the offer of the free posters and brochure you can receive a lot of useful health information by visiting the site. There is a link called All About Obesity where you can learn about the condition. The sub links in this link are Obesity, Morbid Obesity, Co-Morbid Conditions, Treatment Options, Childhood Conditions, Statistics, Stigma, BMI, and Glossary. If you need to know any information about obesity this is the site and the link that can be most useful. The Brochures/Guides link will show you all the brochures available from OAC where you can learn more about obesity. The other links on the main page are About Us, Advocacy, Resources, Patient Stories, News Room, Membership, and Become a Member. The Advocacy link is important because it can show you what is being done to combat obesity on both the state and national level. The sub links in the Advocacy link are Raise Your Voice, Advocacy Action (sub links of Educate Legislators, Educate Regulators, Educate Insurers and Employers, Educate the Media, and Educate the Public), National Issues, State Issues, OAC Public Policy Statements, Facts and Figures, and Voice Your Concerns.
The information can be invaluable for you or anyone you know who may suffer from obesity. It not only tells what it is but what you can do about it to become a healthier person. The information on the site is all free and anything you are looking for in terms of obesity is easy to find on the site with a keyword search engine. There is also a site map, which makes navigating the site that much easier. You can order more than one of the posters and brochures so if you are a health care professional or are an educator you can use these teaching resources to inform people about obesity. On the site you can also take action and do something about the problem of obesity by becoming a member of OAC. Obesity is a major problem in the United States and by becoming informed and informing people about the condition and the health risks it can help combat the problem.
