    I wonder if this is the real reason for the obesity crisis.

      No doubt it’s a factor due to people failing to absorb as many nutrients, leading to increased over-eating

        this is highly speculative. people don’t over eat because they’re lacking vitamin X, they over eat because processed foods are scientifically designed to be tasty as fuck. we are surrounded by ultra indulgent food and a lot of people can’t handle it.
