Question

What is the BEST example of a direct, non-medical cost of obesity to the individual instead of to society?

(1 point)

the cost of special diet foods and supplements


the cost of larger cars


the cost of more expensive health insurance


the cost of income lost to extra sick days

Answer 1

the cost of special diet foods and supplements

Reason: that's a direct out-of-pocket expense the individual incurs that is non-medical. Lost income is an indirect cost, and insurance/vehicle costs are less clearly direct, non-medical individual expenses.
