N2  - "Rates of overweight and obesity have substantially increased worldwide and have undoubtedly become the major health issues of the 21st century (Ng et al., 2014). In the United States, the number of individuals who are classified as over-weight or obese has doubled since the 1960s. Rates of overweight have leveled off since the late 1990s, but rates of obesity are increasing (National Institutes of Health, 2012; Ng et al., 2014). Not all groups are affected similarly, and the effect on women's health, particularly the health of women during life transitions such as childbearing and menopause, has been underappreciated."
