Answer to Question 2

In public health applications, interventions that address body weight are often preventive, rather than treatment-oriented. For an effective intervention in the public health setting, the program has to have significant effectiveness in clinical settings, broad reach in the population of interest, and consistent implementation in real-life settings. Interventions may also be grouped by age. Public health interventions tend to focus on lifestyle approaches, such as dietary changes and physical activity, and are implemented in community or worksite settings.
