Shape Up Fatheads

Parents will receive official letters telling them if their children are too fat under a government initiative to tackle childhood obesity, according to Britain's Guardian.

Maybe the British should hire a researcher or two because we've got ... two pills that reproduce many of the biological benefits of exercise, helping cells burn fat better and boosting endurance ... so the Nanny State doesn't have to go needlessly chopping down acres of rainforest to notify parents of something they already know.
