Sadly today the world has a new word. The word is “Globesity”. The fat problem has now shifted to countries which traditionally did not have obesity issues. As the western diet has crept in, and as the large multinational food companies stake out their ground for their new income streams the levels of heart disease, certain cancers and type 2 diabetes is sky rocketing!

There is no doubt as to the cause of these lifestyle diseases. These stem from the of consumption processed foods rich in energy (sugar), drenched in processed oils and lacking in nutrition. It is now widely accepted that to solve these issues a return to an as grown, unmodified, whole foods consumption is the answer.

The ABC have produced a very informative, hard hitting documentary on this global problem. This is an eye opening program which discusses the world’s globesity hot spots, India, China, Brazil and Mexico.

The documentary is a must watch and will once again confirm the diet that we should be consuming, a diet that should be every persons lifestyle.
