Abstract/Notes The obesity epidemic has prevailed worldwide and is currently recognized as a global pandemic disease. Given the argument that various socioeconomic features contribute to substansial differences in obesity rates across countries, economic, development can also be considered as one crucial factor of such variation. This study examines the relationship between economic development and each of the three weight related health status (overwight, obesity, and morbid obesity rates) over 130 countries during the period from 1975 to 2010 by applying the dynamic panel data analysis to mitigate possible endogeneity problems.
