    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on research concerning the eating habits of people suffering from economic anxiety. It states an experiment exposed people to words on a poster suggesting tough economic times were more likely to eat more high-calorie foods than a control group not exposed to the words. Director David Allison of the Nutrition Obesity Research Center commented on how social status also contributes to obesity due to perceptions of not having power and how this affects public health strategies.
