@OhRick Nor is the cost and strain on our medical system caused by obesity and other dietary and lifestyle choices. Obesity alone was almost 30% of total, BEFORE fat acceptance: "...treating obesity-related illness has risen from 20.6% ... to 28.2% in 2

@Judith_Random Samozřejmě jsem myslel z problému, které lze ovlivnit. Jinak bude pravděpodobně nejdražší léčba rakoviny ale ta se ovlivnit moc nedá. Obezita je dle některých zdrojů zodpovědna až za 21% výdajů na HC. https://t.co/TUNS64owoh https://t.co/

Annual medical costs of obesity in US is probably $100B - $400B, year after year. I'd guess at least that much again for indirect econ costs, quality of life, and emotional suffering. https://t.co/Auf3IIpmz4

@DoctorVive $316 billion cost to the US health system from obesity in 2010. Ignoring the higher carbon footprint, that’s a lot of funds that could otherwise be used to address climate change (or improve health care, or some mix of both). https://t.co/uGgN
Obesity costs and added ~$3500 per person/year. This is ~$300/month. We should instead pay for everyone to have a gym membership, a personal trainer, and nutritionist and it would still be less expensive https://t.co/gKS0gj61YV

Obesity is not only unhealthy but *incredibly* costly. "The share of total health care spending of non-institutionalized adults that is devoted to treating obesity-related illness has risen from 20.6% in 2005 to 27.5% in 2010 to 28.2% in 2013" https://t.c
