[by the federal government, in 1977] That bears repeating: a 50 percent increase in obesity/overweight correlated with a 10 percent decrease in fat content in the diet.” quote by Larry McCleary MD](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/860/larry-mccleary-md-105511_diet_adult-obesity-and-overweight-statistics_708270.jpg)
