perhaps ironically, it may be the chemicals in our environment and not dietary choices which are driving high obesity rates: https://slimemoldtimemold.com/2021/

"The chemicals are turing the plebs fat!" -- Seriously, While travelling SE Asia, every single rice field from Myanmar, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, Japan.... etc. It was REALLY common to see the petro-chem signs in the fields advertising the petro-chemical compound's name brands. (I couldnt read local languages and the 'English' name brands were not what we have here, so they didnt form a stark imprint... But the root OEM was mostly Monsanto et al ptrochems. The point being, and this will be controversial, but its true: There are a much higher % of trans/gay folks in these rural communities whereby the entire water table is permeated with petrochems. and their water, while treated, is still victim to contaminants of the petro chems in the water. (Its all about the Endocrines) SOURCE: My FIL was the civil-hydro engineer for the largest water plant in Mindanao Philippines. His son was on the board of the "rice consortium" (I cant recall what it was called -- the governmental agency concerned with ensuring that everyone in the PH has access to rice as the main staple foodsource, and more about pesticides. Think of NASCAR branding of vehicles. (like Shell Oil) - but now imagine PESTICIDE branding of rice farms... with label signs for the pesticides being used. Recall when Indian farmers were committing suicide over GMO seeds that produced no yield and they killed themselves before they could starve to death? So I got rice production and water production information from these two engineers... And the dots were compelling. Its the same type of contamination the fish are receiving from SunScreen.

  Hopefully high purity water becomes more available as the technology gets deployed to these areas.

It’s no surprise that extreme excess of food due to low cost results in massive obesity. This is replicated in essentially every mammal study where one provides an unlimited amount of food and comfort to an environment. If sugar were taxed 1000% percent we would see a massive change in global health.
