14. IB Assessment Statement Outline the reasons for the increasing rates of clinical obesity in some countries, including availability of cheap high-energy foods, large portion sizes, increasing use of vehicles for transport, and a change from active to sedentary occupations.

15. Clinical obesity describes a significant excess of body fat and is typically caused by a combination of two factors: 1. Increasing energy intake (more fats produced) – The affordability of sugar-rich, high-energy food can cause people to spurn more nutritional alternatives – People in developed countries are frequently being served larger portion sizes ('super-sizing') 2. Decreased energy expenditure (less fats consumed) – There is an increased reliance on vehicular transport in developed countries, reducing frequency of exercise – Advancements in technology (computers, robotics) have reduced the level of physical activity in a number of occupations
