To become the world's fattest nation, rising incomes of modern Mexicans and their consumption vices have helped them surpass the US.

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.
