Exercise 'not key to obesity fight'

Physical activity has little role in tackling obesity - and instead public health messages should squarely focus on unhealthy eating, doctors say.

In an editorial in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, three international experts said it was time to "bust the myth" about exercise.

They said while activity was a key part of staving off diseases such as diabetes, heart disease and dementia, its impact on obesity was minimal.

Instead excess sugar and carbohydrates were key.

Obesity has also allot to do with genetics. That doesn't neccessarily mean it can't be battled, though.

It's a combination. But carbs (sugars) are one of the worst problems, especially in modern fake food world.
