1990 Obesity Rate for Maine Adults Was Near Half of 2004 Rate

Monday, February 15th, 2010

In 1990,45% of Maine adults were overweight with 12% of them being obese. In 2004, 61% of Maine adults were overweight with 23% of them being obese. Source.

I guarantee the obesity rate was even lower in the 50’s. Please visit my blog American Women Didn’t Get Fat in the 50’s. I offer vintage and old-fashioned common sense advice that was the norm in our country. We can all do something about this serious health problem in Maine!
