Obesity in America
An annual report has been released on obesity in America.
FOX News Radio’s Chris Foster reports:
The adult obesity rate is over 30% in 20 states… It’s over 35% in Mississippi and West Virginia. Colorado is the skinniest state.
Overall the obesity rate is expanding but more slowly and declining in some states among low-income children.
The study, conducted by the non-profits Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, based on federal government data.
The ten states with the highest rates of Type 2 diabetes and hypertension are all in the south.
