It's pretty common knowledge that the US has a problem with obesity. According to research, 1/3 of American adults are obese and we pump BILLIONS of dollars per year into efforts to curb the climb, educate, and move toward a more healthy life...but what if obesity isn't wholly about eating habits and self-discipline?
An interesting article based on new research finds that not only are humans facing an obesity epidemic, but marmosets, monkeys, mice and a variety of lab animals have also followed an upward trend in weight...what's causing it and what can we do about it?
