Like a needle climbing up a bathroom scale, the number keeps rising. In 2001, 15% of Americans were obese; by 2009, that proportion had grown to 27%. Youngsters, who should have age and activity on their side, are growing larger as well: 19% of Americans under 17 are obese. Waistbands have been popping in other western countries too, as physical activity has declined and diets have expandeD.By and large, people in the rich world seem to have lost the fight against flab (松弛).Meanwhile, poorer nations have enjoyed some success in their battles against malnutrition and famine. But, according to research presented at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, it is more a case of being out of the frying pan and into the fire. The most striking example in the poor world actually comes from the Pacific islands, home of the world’s most obese communities. In 2000, 14% of the men on this island were obese while 26% of men under the age of 30 in 2010 were obese.
This increase in weight has been uneven as well as fast. As a result, undernourished and over-nourished people frequently live cheek by jowl (面颊). The mix can even occur within a single householD.A study of families in Indonesia found that nearly 10% contained both the hungry and the fat. This is a mysterious phenomenon, but might have something to do with people of different ages being given different amounts of food to eat.
In many affected countries there are cultural factors to contend with, such as an emphasis on eating large meals together, or on food as a form of hospitality. Moreover, there is a good measure of disbelief on the part of policymakers that such a problem could exist in their countries. Unless something is done soon, it might not be possible to turn the clock back.
