Just to add a different perspective here...
We are looking at the government regulating the "diet" industry?
At the tip of that industry, we see the pharmaceutical combine foisting another 'life-long' drug treatment to 'change human behavior and metabolism.'
We also see the addition of the vanity industry and it's media mogul direction - we see the ancillary and almost superfluous "health care industry" with all it's middlemen - in addition to that we see the "food" industry (big list.)
This regulation and regulatory involvement will serve and protect the industry... not the people. Ensuring the perpetual placement of dietary management commerce within the governments domain.
But why is this intervention necessary? What change diet-wise since the 1950's for example where almost no one considered being over 'optimal' weight, a crisis?
How can we address the symptom via regulatory control of prescribed medicines... with no real attention given to it's cause.
As far as I am thinking "obesity" is a condition... not a disease.
It happens sometimes because of disease... but that is not it's most frequent cause nowadays...
I suspect it's what we eat.
I think this is the outgoing administration's obligatory "nod" to Big Pharma... something for me to think on.
