Obesity, a growing problem
1977
Kolata, Gina Bari
Some of the ambiguities confronting researchers studying obesity are explored. What is most disturbing is that investigators confess ignorance about what causes obesity and how best to treat it. Many of the theories, such as the theory that fat babies become fat adults, may have little basis in fact. No one diet has been found to be any better, in terms of long range results, than any other. All of the radical treatments raise the question of whether the treatment is worse than the disease.
