Design Role In Prevent & Overcome Obesity Prevelance
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2015, Vol 3, Issue 12
Abstract
in last decade , the main concern for the w orld in general w as about public health. Efforts were focused on controlling a spread of diseases as health costs have become the biggest single expenditure in all societies according to world health organization .
