Blending theory, research, and engaging personal anecdotes the authors discuss how declining food costs-especially for high-calorie, low-nutrient foods-and an increasing usage of technology, which make Americans more sedentary, has essentially led us to eat more calories than we burn off.ObesityEconomic aspectsUnited StatesObesityEconomic aspects362.196/39800973Finkelstein Eric518714Zuckerman Laurie1972-1470060MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910784846303321The fattening of America3681735UNINA01751nas 2200349 n 450 99000888277040332120240229084428.0000888277FED01000888277(Aleph)000888277FED01000888277CNRP 0009007820090724a19509999km-y0itaa50------bagerauu--------Abhandlungen der mathematisch-naturwissenschaftlichen Klasse.
