Obesity in America has reached a disastrous level. In 2013, 27.1% of adults were obese in 2013, the highest rate Gallup has measured since 2008. The obesity rate has increased by nearly a full percentage point over the previous year, transitioning more Americans into the obese category from overweight. According to the CDC, childhood obesity alone has more than tripled in the past 30 years and research has shown sugar is linked to this and other health problems.
Obesity compromises your health, shortens your life and can even cause death. Added weight gain increases the probability of developing diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure and many more diseases.
