@calleymeans @askdrfatima Also needs to clarify why this “genetic” condition doesn’t affect the overwhelming majority of people who eat a reasonable amount of unprocessed healthy foods & moderately exercise a few times/week (which doesn’t describe most US residents).

What people are saying
Discussions reflect a perceptible interest in the study's findings, with commenters questioning the role of genetics and environmental factors, such as in the remark about 'unprocessed healthy foods' and moderate exercise. The tone is analytical yet somewhat skeptical, suggesting that users are engaging thoughtfully but not deeply challenging or expanding on the implications of the research.
The discussion shows a moderate consensus that the study highlights important factors influencing obesity, as seen in the emphasis on dietary and environmental factors.
Participants demonstrate a basic interest in the topic, questioning assumptions about genetics and the role of lifestyle behaviors.
The exchange includes critical commentary and clarification, indicating moderate engagement with the research findings.
The discussion raises awareness about broader societal and policy implications but does not indicate a profound shift in opinions or actions.
Abstract in brief
- The study found that in 56 countries, increases in food energy supply are linked to increases in average body weight, especially in high-income countries.
- In 45 countries, the actual increase in body weight was greater than what the model predicted could be explained by energy intake alone, suggesting other factors may also contribute.
- The results indicate that boosting food energy supply plays a significant role in the global rise of obesity, emphasizing the need for policies to promote healthier food systems and environments.]
