In this video I consider evolutionary explanations for the modern struggle with obesity. I describe how obesity is defined using the calculation of body mass index or BMI and consider potential problems with this simple calculation. I also discuss set point theory, energy expenditure, and the Dutch Hunger Winter of 1944-1945 and its possible role in gene expression and incidence of type-II diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and obesity.
