Obesity in America

    Obesity Rankings

    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.
