For the primary time ever, extra folks die from consuming an excessive amount of than from consuming too little; extra folks die from previous age than from infectious illnesses; and extra folks commit suicide than are killed by troopers, terrorists, and criminals put collectively. The common American is 1,000 instances extra prone to die from binging at McDonalds than from being blown up by Al Qaeda. What then will exchange famine, plague, and warfare on the high of the human agenda?
