Abstract:
While there is mixed evidence of the impact of food assistance programs on obesity, there is general agreement that the food-insecure are at higher risk of obesity and obesity-related diseases. Food assistance programs, originally designed to overcome a lack of available food, now need to confront a very different problem: how to provide for the food-insecure while encouraging healthy lifestyles. This paper examines the potential to address these competing needs using traditional economic policies (manipulating information or prices) versus policies engaging behavioral economics and psychology

Abstract:
Obesity remains one of the greatest public health concerns in the United States due to both its cost and complexity. To effectively identify the potential causes and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions to reduce obesity requires multiple dimensions of analysis to ensure the goals of analysis are being adequately addressed. This paper contains three papers that span the spectrum of obesity research, from potential causes in the local food environment, to potential programs to address obesity in the worksite. The first chapter addresses the effectiveness evaluation of weight loss progr

Abstract:
Obesity is a public health concern in both high- and low-middle income countries. In South Africa obesity is not only limited to adults but is also evidenced in children. In order to contribute useful insights for developing effective obesity policy and programme interventions, this study assesses socioeconomic (SE) inequalities related to childhood obesity in South Africa. Using data from the South African National Income Dynamics survey (2012), the study assesses the extent of SE inequalities in obesity using concentration index (CI). The study also assesses the determinants that underpin th

Abstract:
High birth weight (also known as macrosomia) is a problem that has as of yet received little attention by health researchers, in particular, health economists. High birth weight is a concern mostly due to the increased difficulties it presents during birth for both the mother and the baby but there is also concern that high birth weight may continue to present negative effects later in the baby’s life. Many factors have been attributed as risk factors for high birth weight including mother’s age, ethnicity, parity, obesity, weight gain during pregnancy, infant gender, and gestation length. How

With an increase in the older adult population aged 65 and over in the United States, there has also been an increase in the incidence of injury amongst this age group. In 2003, injury was the sixth leading cause of death in adults aged 65–74 and seventh in adults aged 75–84 [1,2]. Additionally, the cost of non-fatal injuries doubled from ages 65–74 to ages 75–84, showing not only a potential for increased injury risk in older adults, but also an increase in economic burden with age [1,3]. However, age is just one factor contributing to the increased injury risk. Obesity has also been shown to
