Watch "Super Size Me" and you'll have an answer to your question.
too little excersize, they all drive everywhere, too much hydrogenated oils, and too much high fructose corn syrup, they are filling their bodies with concentrated fats and sugars whilst not moving around enough, kind of a double whammy
nobody tries to eat right any more. maybe their eatting to much fast food.
they love food
Bad eating habits
Because we don't understand the importance of exercise and healthy eating. I'm an athlete and I provide my body with the right kind of food to perform at optimum levels without steroids.
Because parents don't control their children's eating habits. American's are generally lazy and parent's don't want to cook now-a-days so they leave it up to either fast food or they let their kids have what they want.
It's all a product of poor parenting
Too much carbs on American genes. Blame McDonalds.
for the same reasons that somalians are under weight!
cause we to damn lazy to get up and too much mcdonalds
they eat bad stuff.and a lot of it too.
it's got to do with 'building fences' to the outside world and having a 'protection' around ones self.
that makes a lot of sense to me as we are talking about people who have to deal with a whole lot of TV-dictation and nothing 'life-threatening' to worry about..
I don't know but us Aussies are catching up. I think it is all the food additives, plus our busy lifestyle and poor eating habits.
all they do is, eat, eat eat and eat...maybe their country got the highest portion of fat. i have a cousin who lives there, she is like her mum, very fat and she is just 12years old.but when u see her u can easily say she is 29 or more.so i will say less exercise. talk of food always mostly fatty ones.
Source(s):
so i will advice that the fat ones. take medicinces like.(new night and day) it helps so much .. there have been testimonies that it really help.or "weightloss"
I'm 6ft 2" tall, male and 60Kg. Not over weight at all. In fact I need to gain a little. It's OK today - nice and sunny. But I have trouble keeping warm on a cold day. My blood pressure is always good. So that is an advantage - it means my arteries aren't clogged with cholesterol and I'm low risk of a stroke or heart attack. I had roast pork and a baked potato for lunch. I'm thinking about chicken and french Fries for dinner. I bought a 3Kg jar of candy last week and unfortunately - there is none left - I ate it all. I hope the shop put another jar on order for me! I eat a few biscuits - not many - about 12 packets a month. The odd bag of crisps. You call them "chips". We call French fries "chips"! Confused? Yes, I'm English and not at all over-weight and have never been in MacDonald's or Burger King or KFC! A good old fashioned English Fish and chip shop occasionally. The fish is good for you and the chips are usually fried in polyunsaturated oil these days. You Americans like everything big - so you have your wish. But personally - although my car is larger than most in England. Only a 2 litre. I'm not impressed by the really big gas guzzlers, silicone implanted women do nothing for me and guys that buy vacuum pumps and Viagra ... pathetic.
The food companies add hidden things that make you more hungry. Have you ever seen an overweight person eating fresh fruits and vegetables? More than likely not. They probably have some ready made sausy icky brown slop they toss into the microwave. What are those round coin looking discs in that ready made meal anyway? They are gone after we heat it up. Does diet soda make you hungry? Hmmmm. Its all about the all-mighty dollar. If you are hungry you eat more. If you eat more, they make more $$$.
because they eat alot of junk food, are uneducated, and dont exersize. canadians on the other hand will walk places or ride a bike
