A good Fish diet might help, it even aids your sense of humour I'm told.

People are living longer, all ages are more sedentary. Food is processed with a lot of sodium and fat added for flavor.  People make poor choices, going for quick instead of "healthy".  We are seriously overfed at restaurants, too.  Too many Americans "Live to Eat" rather than "Eat to Live".

Because they've grown tired of competing with the trim, fit, healthy and segacious Canadians. It had become a battle they simply could not win.

Because we do not burn off more than we take in, with our lifestyles of inactivity, and non-physical jobs.  Bring back agricultural times, and we would lean out having to do the chores related to that industry, more family farms would be great, from many points!

It's because of the processed food that we buy in the grocery store.And the food that we eat in fast food restuarants and other restuarants. It  is loaded with carbs, fats, soy, corn syrup, sugar. Even our pets are fat. But, when I was growing up in the 50s, our moms  cooked fresh foods from scratch.And hardly any kids were fat. The average man was about  5' 9"  and weighed about 150 lbs.
