Tasmanians more obese, dying younger

Those devils.

Adult Tasmanians continue to have a shorter life expectancy than other Australians.

The annual report for Tasmania's Department of Health and Human Services shows life expectancy figures have not improved over the past few years...

The report also shows adult Tasmanians are eating a somewhat healthier diet but overweight and obesity rates have increased.

The report says the proportion of the adult population who eat at least five serves of vegetables a day has increased above the national average.

And what does this say about "healthy foods"?
