"Food Fight" Book with Good Insights
 
This book may have been discussed here before. So far I find it most
interesting to read about the deadly combo of genetic predisposition to
obesity coupled with chronic overeating and poor nutrition.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...02500?v=glance

From Publishers Weekly
The war against obesity must go beyond personal responsibility and will
power to encompass a Gandhian mass movement against a food industry and
a social order intent on fattening us, argues this fact-filled but
ferocious manifesto. The authors, academics with the Yale Center for
Eating and Weight Disorders, contend that our abundant, super-sized
meals and our modern, sedentary lifestyles have formed a "toxic
environment" that indulges our genetic fat-storage proclivities to a
pathological degree. The result is an "epidemic" of obesity,
cardiovascular disease, diabetes and low self-esteem.

(I have no $$ interest in this book)
