According to the National Center for Health Statistics, more than 64% of the US adult population is overweight (Body Mass Index >25 and <30 kg/m²); and roughly 31% of American adults meet the criterion for obesity (BMI > 30 kg/m²) - that is, about 59 million American adults. Adult obesity has increased from 12.8% in 1976-1980 to 22.5% in 1988-1994 and 30% in 1999-2000.

According to the UN's estimate, 141 million people around the world use marijuana. This represents about 2.5 percent of the world population.
