There are people who will propose everyone should wear a fitness tracker and their caloric intake should be monitored by a central health Care agency to save lives and to reduce healthcare costs. But it would be racist to measure all ethnicities the same, so some would have more calories and others less.I would think most progressives would be on board with that.
I'm sure a year of lockdowns had nothing to do with it.
Anecdotally, I've lost weight in the last year. Down ~20-30lbs on the year and about 80lbs from my peak a number of years ago. 20 More and I'm at my target, but still need to convert some of that mass to muscle.
Just looked at the image and it appears to be kind of bogus. "Fake news," if you will.
What's this about "added" sugars and fats in the middle row? If we're talking about obesity, why does "added" anything matter? It doesn't. It's about the total intake of calories, fats, etc., not some human-created subcategory of them that your body doesn't care about.
The point of that "article" (if you'd call it that) seems to be to bash on soybean oil. There's not a lot to go on, but from what I can tell, it's manipulated data to promote a predetermined conclusion.
Garbage. Where do you get this stuff, and why do you put any faith in it?
Working mothers who don't have the time or inclination to prepare a nutritious evening meal for their children so they take them to McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, etc where the kids gorge on cheeseburgers, fries and shakes.

It's showing that sugars do not cause obesity but the added processed fats and excessive calories is what causes obesity. Added just means processed.

The point of the article is to show that it's mainly processed fats/oils and excessive calories that cause obesity. Not sugar and carbs.
A famine is coming and people sense it and eat more.
