I Am Reeaally Interested In Nutrition

Ok. Note that starting in 1973 corn syrup began to be used as a sweetener as opposed to can sugar. The adult obesity rate balooned from 14% in the 70's to 30% in the early 2000's to 40% now. In addition about 70% of American adults are now overweight.

Is it possible there are other factors that contribute to obesity?

@CoffeeFirst Oh, of course. That is obvious. The geography and psychology of the people is writ large on the landscape and in their habits. Commuting, having almost anything to do with electronics etc contribute, as well as consuming processed foods, and eating larger portions than in the past all contribute.
