Obesity Pandemic!

Posted by Maria Kang on September 6th, 2006

According the World Health Organization more than 1 billion adults are overweight and 300 million of them are obese, putting them at much higher risk of diabetes, heart problems, high blood pressure, stroke and some forms of cancer.

It looks like the whole world is starting to pick up on the hegemon’s bad habits. Not only will parents outlive obese kids, but people all over the world are influenced by fat laden meals and limited physical activity. http://health.yahoo.com/news/166129
