New Yorkers are attacked by fat!

Posted Oct 07 2008 7:19pm

Now, why are New Yorkers getting fatter?  People believed living in the city you would be immune from being obese.  Majority of the people in the city are walkers.  So, why is there a 17% increase in New Yorkers becoming fat ?  The national average is 6.5%.  Good question, the health dept is concern.  New Yorkers have gain 10 Million pounds of fat in 2 years.
                                                          Here's the breakdown

  • Lower income - 26%
  • Middle Class - 27.6%
  • Wealthiest - 17.7%

Another health concern is that one in 10 New Yorkers right now are suffering from diabetes. NY will have a health crisis.  The answers should not be to create new laws or regulations by our government concerning food consumption.  We need to start aWellness Revolutionand take responsibility for our own bodies. We will examine the possible reasons for New York's fat attack.
