Living a healthy lifestyle may be ideal, however I feel for a large pool of society who suffers under poor working wages such as those on tips, often having to work two jobs . They typically do not have the time, means or opportunity to either eat healthily or exercise or provide healthy food for their family.
When the minimum wage is a base rate of just over $2 in some places plus tips it is an impossible poverty trap that leads to these sad statistics in what is a very wealth country.
