if isotope values varied by geography or if anyone was putting in sweeteners, says Peck.

Nature also looked at where the sequences come from (see The geography of sampling. The picture that emerges is worse than some experts had thought.

Both techniques depend on the peculiarities of local geography and badger populations, but they reflect the range of approaches that can be supported by the scientific evidence.

or So that's actually pretty good says Cary Mock a geography professor at the University of South carolina.

Geography and the existence of so-called food deserts (neighborhoods or regions with limited access to affordable healthy food) appear to have little bearing on the obesity trend in general

or geography he said. And it's true that if you look at the national data for any one point in time it's not hard to figure out for example that the people with the lowest education tend to have the highest obesity rate.
