"This to me says that the big reason that Westerners are getting fat
is because we eat too much - it's not because we exercise too
little," said Dr Pontzer.

Well I could have told him that.


There was a prog on it a few weeks ago, about obesity in children.

in kids rather than their own sugar and lardy products.
Fat kids were fitted with electronic monitors which shown they were doing
the same amount of excersise as non-obese kids
