São Paulo study links urban violence exposure to obesity risk

A longitudinal study of São Paulo residents (2014-2015 vs 2020-2021) suggests an association between urban violence and obesity incidence. The finding is preliminary and based on observational data; causality remains unproven. This matters as it could inform public health and urban policy in violence-prone cities.
