Alabama – 36.3% Obesity Rate
Alabama, known for its chicken-fried steak, has the country’s fifth-highest rate of obesity. The obesity rate of 36.3% is bad enough on its own, but it is even more devastating to hear that when you count the number of overweight residents, this goes up to 69%. A CDC study said that in the previous month, 31% of Alabamans did not do any physical activity at all.
