You haven't answered my question. Why do Asian Americans have lower obesity rates? They don't live in Japan, they live in America yet their obesity rates are much lower than other races.
The stats i gave you above are all stats of races within America. Not global stats. (they are black Americans, Hispanic Americans, White Americans , Asian Americans)
If you knew anything about Asian Americans you’d know they don’t shop at the same grocery stores as us. You’d also know they have cultural traditions that they (atleast the older, immigrant generations) tend to keep up even when they move here, such as cooking/snacking habits (making everything for themselves and buying less premade trash) and exercise habits (e.g. an hour of tai chi every morning - some might scoff but that’s an hour more of physical exertion than the average American (especially the elderly) is getting)
Asian grocery stores are full of processed foods and an incredible level of sodium. Yes, there is rice, meat, and produce - just like any grocery store. The catch is you need to prepare and eat those instead of that family size bag of frozen dumplings in your cart.
Asian grocery stores still import food from the closest place to them because its conveniant so the difference isn't much. You can go to one and ask them where they get their vegetables and meat from . And like i said. That is exactly my point. Its a lifestyle thing and they eat less than others.
its the difference in the amount of hyper-processed garbage eaten
but they get their vegetables and meat from the same source
You can’t be serious dude…

Sure, like I said, I put it around 80-20. Your analysis neglects metabolism and genetics entirely however. But at some point your “lifestyle choice” of drinking an extra large soda at each of your 5 daily meals ceases to be a “lifestyle choice” and instead becomes something more like a “societally-mediated mental illness”. The asian societies, even the ones here, for whatever reason, don’t put up with fat fucks (as much).
I don’t think your posts necessarily deserved the response they received, but honestly who the fuck cares what some fat faggot on reddit posted? If you must, there are places like c/ShitRedditSays dedicated to such faggotry
that goes for all grocery stores not just Asian ones though. Seriously ask Asian grocery stores where their food comes from i guarentee you a lot of it are locally sourced and not from overseas.
Yes I did answer your question. You just ignored it.
These levels of obesity did not exist in previous generations, it only surfaced in the nineties when crap like margarine and HFC was proliferated. There is your proximate cause.
The content of the food is the sole issue here. Period.
