Any idea what the number one cause of death is among people in Australia and NZ (and I suspect most other western nations) is? That's right, heart disease. Any idea what one of the biggest contributors to heart disease is? Right again. Being overweight and living a sedentry lifestyle.

Hospitals spend far more money on people with heart disease than anything else. That's why countries don't want extra people who are fat. We've got enough of our own already.
