I think smoking and substance abuse including dwi might fit your claim, but there is about no evidence that obesity is itself a causal problem. It is most often a result of other disease, but rarely a cause. Despite the fake news, diet is almost never a factor in health intervention. Headlines get eyeballs and there is nothing that gets a wider range of eyeballs than what one should or should not eat. Don’t believe it. Most all information about diet being the cause of bad health lacks an actual cause and effect relationship.

It is well established that bad diets lead to all kinds of health problems- it has been studied extensively
