Why was morbid obesity much less prevalent in the USA two or three
generations ago than it is today?

answer

That's an interesting question. The WHO did a study back in the late 50's
involving people on an island. It's a much talked about study but I can't
remember the name of it. I'm sure if you research it even alittle you'll
find the study thru google. Anyways, on this island, the inhabitants only
ate what they themselves grew on their island, The rate of heart disease,
cancer, diabetes was practically unheard of on this island. In the years to
follow, a large amount of some type of ore was found on this island. The
people there began exporting their fine ore and since they were becoming
wealthy, they also begain importing foods from American, England, Europe and
other places. The WHO went back into this island in the late 90's repeat
their study. Over 75% of the population now had diabetes, cancer and heart
disease! Of the 25% of the people who were still pretty healthy? They
continued to eat what they grew on their island. If that doesn't tell the
story clearly enough, I don't know what does. It's obvious to me that the
overly processed foods in this country have more to do with the morbid
obesity rate in this country than overeating


The overly processed foods also have a lot more calories than what you can
grow yourself with simple tools.

Compare the calorie content of an ear of corn to a bag of Doritos.

Eating lots of processed food IS overeating.

Thank you for playing.

Well duh, no kidding. Where did you see me say it wasn't? Did I not say
that I believe the overly processed foods that we eat is more the cause of
obesity in this country than anything else? And who's playing here? I
thought we were having an intelligent discussion. Perhaps it's PLAY to you
but for those of us who struggle with weight and try everything under the
sun to lose it to no avail? It ain't play, honey. I went to doctors and
tried every diet, every diet pill everything under the SUN to no avail! And
I've had 75 credit hours of formal nutritional training while in nursing
school too. Finally my doctor sent me to a allergist who's big thing is
food intolerances and guess what? All I did was eliminate processed foods
from my diet and milk because it turned out I was highly allergic to sodium
casinate. And I lost from 315 lbs down to 150 lbs in three years. I was
losing weight so fast I had to slow it down! The cause? Just what I said,
processed foods caused severe water retention/generation in my body. Enough
of this crap. I am putting the information out here for anyone interested
in doing their own homework and cutting out the processed foods in their
life. Also, if you get heart burn from any food in particular? That means
YOUR body doesn't particularly like it when you eat that food, I'd eliminate
that as well. I did this and believe it or not, I no longer have GERDS and
haven't had to take meds for it in two years. KNOW YOUR BODY FOLKS IF YOU
REALLY WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT AND BE HEALTHIER! I'm outta here..............

I may not have much education, but I am not the one saying that
obesity is the same as water retention.
You are the one who said that. By all means, the rest of us should
take the time to learn/ask about this novel idea from reputable
sources and then form our own ideas as to wheteher or not you deserve
to be listened to.

Enough
