New research reveals important findings about the cause of obesity
Web Desk A
new study has revealed that the main cause of obesity may not be a lack of
physical activity, but our diet.
In a study
published in PNAS this week, researchers challenged the common perception that
people in developed countries are more easygoing than people in developing
countries.
The study
found that people living in developed countries also burn as many calories as
people in less developed countries (such as farmers, herders, hunters, etc.).
A study
conducted on 4,000 men and women of different nationalities showed that
laziness or inactivity is not the main cause of obesity in the United States
and elsewhere in the world.
The latest
study found that people's diet is more related to obesity than energy
expenditure.
According to
the senior author of the study, Professor Hermann Pontzer, the results of the
report are also important because they will help health experts understand the
real causes of obesity, which will lead to successful treatments for patients.
