Nice thread from @StephenORahilly reminding us that obesity results from both genetics 🧬AND environment 🌍
Before I go off Twitter for a week or so to get on with proper work it might be helpful, at least for some correspondents, to review a few pretty well established facts
1. Obesity has become more common in the recent past (precise trajectories depend on which country) \

Can't wait to try this! 💚
