As part of the Make America Healthy Again campaign Robert F. Kennedy Jr. speaks out about the obesity myth.
In this video he talks about the biggest myth of the national obesity epidemic. The biggest myth is that if you are obese or overweight, it’s your fault. Today three quarters of Americans are obese or overweight including 40% of American teenagers.
When Robert was growing up in the 1950’s and 1960’s childhood obesity was almost unheard of. You don’t need statistics to know that something has changed. If you look at photos of state fairs and beaches from the 1950’s you can see that something has changed and it isn’t human nature. We haven’t suddenly become gluttonous or lazy.
