In testimony before the US House of Representatives, Richard H. Carmona, M.D., and former Surgeon General made the following remarks:
"The crisis is obesity. It’s the fastest-growing cause of disease and death in America. And it’s completely preventable.
- Nearly two out of every three Americans are overweight or obese.
- One out of every eight deaths in America is caused by an illness directly related to overweight and obesity."
Research has consistently shown that physical activity is one of the best methods to prevent weight gain and ensure the long-term maintenance of weight loss and health.
