America getting fatter
Aug 31st, 2007 by Vik
The F as in Fat: How Obesity Policies Are Failing in America, 2007 Report was recently released, showing that adult obesity rates rose in 31 states. Not good.
Pennsylvania was in the middle of the pack as the 23rd fattest state. I guess its not the worst.
Pennsylvania has the 23rd highest rate of adult obesity at 24.5 percent and the 29th highest rate of overweight youths (ages 10-17) at 13.3 percent in the nation, according to a new report by Trust for America’s Health (TFAH).
