Rising incomes of modern Mexicans and their consumption vices have helped them surpass the US to become the world's fattest nation.
About 70 percent of adults in Mexico are obese and a 33 percent of them are very much so, the Global Post reported.
Childhood obesity tripled in a decade and about a third of teens are fat as well.
According to experts, four out of five of heavy kids will remain like that for their entire lives.
