Increased food energy supply is more than sufficient to explain the US epidemic of obesity
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 10/15/09

Swinburn B et al. – Increased energy intake appears to be more than sufficient to explain weight gain in the US population. A reversal of the increase in energy intake of 2000 kJ/d (500 kcal/d) for adults and of 1500 kJ/d (350 kcal/d) for children would be needed for a reversal to the mean body weights of the 1970s. Alternatively, large compensatory increases in physical activity (eg, 110–150 min/d walking), or a combination of both, would achieve the same outcome. Population approaches to reducing obesity should emphasize a reduction in the drivers of increased energy intake.
