Obesity- it can kill you

Obesity, though it may surprise you, is one of the leading preventable causes of death worldwide! Mortality rates related to obesity have nearly doubled, and in the U.S, it is recorded to cause nearly 365 000 deaths per year. Obesity can also lower one's life expectancy. On average, it can reduce it by up to seven years, but in more severe cases, it can lower it by 10! Imagine, instead of living to the ripe old age of 90, you only live until 80 just because you are fat!
