More than 85 percent of Americans will be eating less than 800 calories per week by 2050, and about 15 percent will be doing so less than 500 calories a day, according to a new report.
The findings by the U.N. Conference on Trade and Development, a body of experts in global trade, show that most Americans will have been consuming less than 1.2,000 daily calories in 2050.
But the report also found that a staggering 75 percent of children, ages 6 to 15, will be drinking no more or less than 700 calories a week, while about half of seniors will be cutting back to less than 300 calories a month.
In the U, adults will likely consume more than 2,000 calorie per day, while children will likely be consuming about 600 calories, according the report.
