Eating less does not result in weight loss
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
http://www.techcentralstation.com/071403A.html The diet advocates have continuously claimed that by eating less, and less fatty foods, we could all be slim. Americans listened. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Center for Nutrition Policy and Promotion, total caloric intake, as well as total fat intake, steadily decreased from 1965 to 1990. During this period, obesity increased dramatically, Steven Blair, P.E.D., president of the Cooper Institute noted in a February 2002 Mayo Clinic Proceedings. "The prevalence of obesity," he concluded, "is unlikely to be due to increases in daily energy intake." We're not the only nation to realize that weight gain can't be explained simply by how much people eat. Between 1980 and 1991, the number of heavyweights in England doubled, while Britons were eating 10 percent fewer calories, according to their government. But American women appear to have been most affected by admonitions to watch what they eat. Before the diet mania, the average American woman took in 3,000 to 5,000 calories a day; today that average woman eats less than 1,600 calories daily and is on some type of weight loss program, according to Frances Berg, M.S., in Women Afraid to Eat -- Breaking Free in Today's Weight-Obsessed World (Healthy Weight Network, 2000). Yet, studies published in peer-reviewed journals from researchers including R.J. Tuschl, Reinhold G. Laessle and Jane Wardle, have found that women who watch what they eat and are light eaters, or who have dieted, actually weigh more than those who don't restrict the foods they eat -- even though they're eating about 620 calories less a day! Many fat individuals have spent their lives restricting what they eat, with valiant willpower and self-control; they just don't look like it. Indeed, after decades of decreasing fat and calorie intakes, 1990 saw a quirky dip especially in men, followed by the recent increase back to 1965 figures; but throughout this entire period, Americans kept getting fatter, while not eating any more than they had before. By the 1990s, it was clear that the low-fat and diet messages weren't working and the USDA, (AHA), and the American Dietetic Association (ADA) began moderating their recommendations, which are reflected in more recent dietary figures. Those trying to convince us of an "obesity crisis" use a common sleight of hand in selectively using only dietary changes since 1990. By taking a narrow sampling to support their claims, these diet proponents exaggerate our bad habits and attribute them to obesity, all the while ignoring why obesity rates soared for decades when we were eating less fat and fewer calories than we are today.
