This generation is the first in history to see a shorter life expectancy than the past (Carmona, 2004; Office of the Surgeon General, 2004, p. 2). Socioeconomic factors are associated with obesity. Healthcare professionals, politicians and layman communities are questioning what strategies to implement to eradicate the obesity pandemic (Schaub and Marian, 2011, p. 553).
