H. Res. 1118 
In the House of Representatives, U. S., 
May 17, 2022. 
Whereas obesity, type-2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer, and 
stroke are among the leading causes of death and dis-
ability nationwide and are inextricably linked to diet; 
Whereas poor diet and nutrition have led to epidemic levels 
of obesity in America, with nearly 40 percent of adults 
currently obese and models projecting that nearly 60 per-
cent of today’s children will be obese by the age of 35; 
Whereas nearly 10 percent of Americans suffer from type-2 
diabetes and more than one-third have pre-diabetes, com-
pared with less than 1 percent just 50 years ago, and 
these conditions can be prevented or reversed by the 
adoption of a healthy diet and an active lifestyle; 
Whereas diet-related cancers are on the rise among young 
adult populations; 
Whereas increasing rates of cardiovascular disease and diet- 
related cancers are contributing to the recent declines in 
life expectancy of the United States population; 
Whereas the economic costs related to— 
(1) diagnosed diabetes exceed $300 billion per year; 
(2) obesity exceed $200 billion per year; and 
(3) cancer care exceed $180 billion per year;
