Title: obesity in Europe
Post by: Crossbow on July 27, 2008, 03:14:46 PM
Interesting new study about obesity in different European countries.

It seems that the "Mediterranean diet" doesn't work that well anymore - at least not in Italy and Spain, where over 25% of the population is currently obese (BMI of 30 and over). Or maybe they don't use the Mediterranean diet anymore....

On the other hand, who would have thought that the Dutch and the Baltic states are among the least obese...

The attached shows two charts. Men on the left hand side, women on the right. The darker the country, the more obese. The bright beige countries did not provide data.

Well it's certainly not reprimanded in the US.
Obesity is increasing everywhere but the U.S.A are still king.
As for this map, it's not correct.

I "reprimand" fat people all the time by showing my utter contempt for them and their sickening lack of willpower.

That's probably a lot of work though.

In America the poorer people tend to be heavier. Lack of fresh foods and lifestyle choices being the 2 main factors.

 There is obese, morbidly obese, super morbidly obese, and JohnnyVegas obese.

In Europe they got a lot more obesity - mainly thanks to us as we've exported our junk outlets and they all love that shit. Old Guiseppe is shunning the wholewheat pasta and olive oil for a nice big mac.

We're also fattening up the chinks like livestock. They used to be all wiry and now they have more chins than their own telephone directories.
We also still have most super morbidly obese fat fucks, but give us time and we'll supersize the whole planet ;D

Hahaha, I think it was Japan that was I just reading about that is going to start fining people or something for having waists over a certain measurement. Maybe it was denial of insurance or something but the government is trying to crack down. They're addicted to McDonald's and their bigger portions and their obesity rate is skyrocketing as a result.
