The processed food supply phased out natural sugars and natural animal fats with cheap industrial inputs like HFCS and seed oils.

HFCS contains massive amounts of hidden, denatured starches that are extremely damaging to glucose metabolism. It is the seed oil equivalent of starchy sugar substitutes.

The population went from a diet high in milk, butter, fruit, honey, tree syrups, grass sugars, and meat...

To a diet of industrial feed.

1. Fat substitutes (seed oils)

2. Sugar substitutes (hfcs)

These are likely the top two factors contributing to the obesity epidemic.
