Move for hunger
www.moveforhunger.org is a really useful article that I found online. It is not a very long article, but it is informative, and the information was really helpful to me. The article talks about the hunger around the world and in America, more specifically about statistics of those who starve. I did not realize how many people were actually struggling, and it is really helpful to gain some of that knowledge. On this article, there is also a link which leads to ways we as people can help those who do not have enough to eat. It also states how much food insecurity and obesity link together, which is what I am writing my research paper on. One of the most useful pieces of information that I found was that those who have less food are actually more prone to obesity. That is because when they are able to eat, they binge and eat so many things that are bad for them, that they make their body gain more weight. Also, with the little money they have, they can only afford the extremely cheap food options rather than the nutritious and healthy option that they should be putting into their body. If you are writing an article on hunger or obesity, I recommend this article, because it is helpful!

Hello Jaelyn, I really enjoy your input on this article. I found it to be thought provoking and really had me thinking to myself. It is sad to be in a developed nation like ours who produces so much food that we still face the issue of starving children throughout this country. Also it also raises the issue of those who eat,most commonly eat foods that harm our health.
