Developing nations may be more obese

This article was about how the developing social and economic conditions in some countries may be leading to obesity This was an interesting article, and it proved a number of things that I had previously thought. In Canada and the US poor people are more likely to be obese because healthy food is more expensive and healthy food takes longer to make and it is easier to go to McDonald's. But in developing countries any food is expensive and if you can buy enough to get fat then you must have a lot of money. It's part of the culture to be bigger but it may be bad for their health. It is definitely something to consider when taking into account how to change the health of the world. In developed countries healthy food needs to be cheaper and in developing countries the idea of wealth needs to be shifted so that being overweight is no longer the ideal.
