My worry on Mall introductions in Kenya

In the recent past there has been a lot of malls being introduced in Kenya. Nearly all major towns and highways  are flocked with sky scraping structures in the name of malls.A shopping centers with all under one roof.
The major worry for many Kenyans about the malls is perhaps the fear of  terrorism attack bearing in mind of the tragic west-gate terror.As a dietitian who is health conscious when I think about the malls I look at the continued massive introduction of  fast food restaurants.

This gives me worry in that if people will be flocking in these malls to feast on various fast food places chances are the trend for disease progression will be sky rocketing day in day out.Obesity will be the main thing and to see an Obese person in the street will not be of much shock since  most people  in the urban centers will be in that category.If not Obese-Overweight, CVDs, diabetes among other noncommunicable diseases

Its true the malls come with a lot of other goodies,fun places,One stop shopping for your home appliances,medicine,cosmetics,banks,among others but when it come to feasting.Healthy choices will always be the best guide. 
Let be a wake up call to you!!
Have A healthy choice.
