David Comment: The obesity epidemic today is because there is too much food available and the ancient mechanisms are being overridden by unthinking people. The mechanisms that are found cover the problems of feast and famine periods alternating in early human forms. One does not see fat hunter-gatherers.

Too much of the wrong food, and too little in terms of energy expenditure. Most people don't walk anywhere anymore.
