America is Fat City.
More than 1 out of 3 adults is obese, and almost 1 out of 5 young
people are obese.
More and more Americans are getting fatter every day, and it’s not just
their problem.
Researchers at George Washington University estimate that the nation’s
cost for obesity—direct medical and non-medical services, lost worker
productivity, the impact of disabilities and the social and economic cost of
premature deaths—exceeds $305 billion per year.
Why are we still buying and selling sugary drinks and unhealthy snack
foods?
