In turn, as is well documented, diet and physical activity influence myriad clinical outcomes including obesity—the result of an imbalance caused by physical inactivity and poor nutrition—and its association with health, morbidity, and mortality. In 2017, most of the leading causes of death in the United States, including heart disease, cancers, chronic lower respiratory diseases, cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes, kidney disease, and hypertension1 can be linked to obesity. The trends in leading chronic diseases and associated causes of death in the United States are also seen globally.
