Is our toxic soup environment a cause for obesity? is it making us fatter?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on what...: Your "toxic soup" is defined as. If the environment is toxic because of processed foods, sedentary lifestyles and supersized portions/all you can eat-costco sized mentality...Yes! if you are referring to our industrialized polluted environment-maybe. When was the last time you: rode a bike to work? Parked far away to walk to your destination? Ate 5 servings of veggies, fruits and roots?
