America’s rapid rise in obesity appears to have leveled off, with new government figures showing no significant increase in a decade.We will have to see.
But there's little reason to cheer. More than two-thirds of adults and almost a third of children are overweight, and there are no signs of improvement.
Experts say they’re not sure whether the lull in the battle of the bulge can be attributed to more awareness and better diets — or whether society has simply reached a maximum level of tubbiness...
Not only are the vast majority of adults — 68 percent — overweight, 34 percent are obese; and 17 percent of children are obese. Even the youngest Americans are affected — 10 percent of babies and toddlers are precariously heavy.
I bet on not likely if the fat continue to reproduce and they do it at the same or higher rate than intended-size humans.
