Put a taboo on sugary and carb ridden foods like they have done for meat and fat and that would start having an impact on the morbidly obese. These are the foods that are the easiest to put down the chute because they are generally desirable to eat and satiation wanes the fastest. Now, that will never happen because there is a systemic conflict of interest in nearly all levels of the system. There's a need for MANY companies to pump up their profits, starting with the cereal that is way, way, way undeserving of being a breakfast staple. Counter-intuitively, going full meat and veggies with no starches unless absolutely necessary might result in less obesity than devouring all that bread, spaghetti, etc. And even nutritionists/scientists got monetary interests to make sure not to taboo carbs but rather emphasize exercise. The wheat farmer, also would be against the taboo'ing of starches..
Emphasizing dentally unharmful foods would also go a VERY long way as well, especially if the research show that p. gingivalis has a causal effect on Alzheimer's and dementia, the incentive to eat dentally healthy would then lead to other healthy outcomes.
Up to a point, weight becomes indeterminate in being a guide for health and becomes a danger of inflicting mental health harm on people who are just a tad "bigger" but not morbidly obese. These people should be accommodated with plus size clothing. Putting them down for not having a Gisele Bundchen level of thin does not help matters for such people.
