According to some sources, at least 1 in 8 of the world population is classified as ‘obese’. Since nobody in any government seems to have thought up a working solution, what do you believe can be done to solve the epidemic?

The first thing to understand is that nobody understands the obesity crisis at all.
The second thing to understand is that the human body naturally stays at a healthy weight, just like any other animal, unless a person has become completely out of touch with their bodies. It cannot be solved with control or medicine.
The third thing to understand is that we teach people to dissociate from their bodies from childhood.
So we do not have an obesity crisis, we have a disembodiment crisis. And obesity is only one of the thousands of horrible effects it creates.
Can you explain what do you mean by this? I’m trying to apply your statement to my own childhood and see the mostly the opposite.
“You have to force yourself to eat this thing you don’t like”
“You have to force yourself to eat everything on your plate even if you say you’re full”
“You can’t touch yourself that way, that’s inappropriate”
“Boys don’t cry”
“Boys don’t get scared”
“Girls don’t get angry”
“Boys / girls don’t like those kind of things”
“You have to smile and be polite even if you don’t like it”
“It’s rude not to let them hug / kiss / touch you”
“You have to say thanks and smile even if you don’t mean it”
“You have to sit still”
“You have to be quiet”
