I don't see it that way. Obesity is caused by deteriorating diets and lack of exercise. I don't think the solution is to keep the poor diet and lack of movement and treat only the resulting obesity. That's WALL-E, not paradise.
Many things get better with time and progress but I don't think our current lifestyles are some kind of evolutionary peak.
- kelseyfrog 2y agoWhat do you think the ultimate causes of poor diet and lack of movement are? All other things considered, how important is it that proximate or ultimate causes of obesity are addressed?
- chpatrick 2y ago> What do you think the ultimate causes of poor diet and lack of movement are? Cheap and plentiful high-calorie food and you're not forced to move if you've got a desk job. That might be modern but that doesn't mean it's better.
