Need a more detailed breakdown by gender/race/income.

Fried food.
Sure, and a lot of other things.
But its a cultural problem. Diet and exercise are the norm in other parts of the country (not sure about the mid West). People in the South go out of their way to not be healthy, like a badge of honor.
There was thread not long ago here ol boy was bitching about how much his lunch cost, a Big Mac, large fries and a coke..............for lunch. Normal people dont eat like that.

Now break it down by demographics
I would imagine race has a large impact, Asian longest/Black shortest but I would also imagine income level would have just as much if not more impact.

Probably the biggest root cause. So many bad things spin off of being overweight.

We like fried chicken and chemical plants too much.

That contributes but look at the Appalachian region which is all white and still has lower life expectancy.

Almost a perfect correlation
