I love the fact that the CEO of that company is actually named Woo. Coincidence? I think not

Even if there is a correlation between obesity and biome diversity, you haven't shown any indication of causation. There may be lurking variables, or you may have the causal arrow reversed. This is Logic 101 stuff.

The fact that it's theoretically possible to catch worms from animals isn't remotely equivalent to your claim that "all kids had worms". Unless you're also claiming that all kids eat dog poop.
