Health Maximization Creates New Paradigm For nearly 30 years, the prevalence of obesity and being overweight has increased sharply for both adults and children. Data from two NHANES surveys show that among adults aged 20-74 years, the prevalence of obesity increased from 15.0% (in the 1976-1980 survey) to 32.9% (in the 2003-2004 survey). FRANK P.
