“Epidemiologically there is a correlation between countries that venerate Santa Claus and those that have high levels of childhood obesity,” writes Grills, a public health fellow at Australia’s Monash University (MU). “This is bad not only for Santa’s waistline but for parental obesity. When Santa is full, Dad is a willing helper.”

Grills goes on to suggest that “Santa (and his helpers)” share “the carrots and celery sticks commonly left for Rudolf” and that Santa should bike, walk or jog instead of sedentarily riding his sleigh.
