Abstract

The article presents an analysis on the cause of obesity based on the theory formulated by Michael Pollan. Pollan argued that as food turns cheap and abundant food, people eat more and get fat. He mentioned that the overproduction of corn causes people's excessive consumption of the food. Corn products are being used in major food meal products.
