“Underlying health conditions like obesity, heart disease, and diabetes are the real pandemic here. Obesity alone doubles your risk of being hospitalized for COVID-19 and raises your risk of death anywhere from 3.68 times to 12 times, depending on your level of it. Processed food (loaded with industrially processed vegetable oils) and soft drinks (chock-full of sugar) are key culprits in the development of chronic disease, and therefore have a key role to play in COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths as well.”
