U.N. unlikely to sway poorer nations on obesity, diabetes

Obesity and diabetes has reached epidemic proportions in the wealthy nations of the world, but should it be a concern for the UN.  Personal responsibiltiy has slowly disintegrated, and now  many governments are  involved in solving problems like obesity and diabetes.  These are concerns of society, but no government can force a person to care about their own health.  With proper nutrition and excercise most of the problems with diabetes and obesity can be solved but only by the individual suffering the effects of the malady.
