Obesity is on the rise in the U.S. and a major risk factor for cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. About 66 percent of Americans are overweight and 31 percent are obese, defined as a body-mass index greater than 30. As we exercise less and eat more, most of us are expanding our waistlines much greater than the 35 inches for women and 40 inches for men. Other than growing children or physically active persons, most of us should follow a low-fat, low-cholesterol and low carbohydrate diet.
