Subject: RE: BS: Now we know why we are fat
Wrong - now you know why you eat more food and conserve it as fat more eficiently.

If you starve you go thin. It is still a life choice, just a little harder to choose differently.

Now why don't we discuss the virus that can show the same effect. Highly contentious but there are researchers out there looking at it.

And have you noticed that children born of fatter parents are more likely to be fat, even though the offspring born when the parents were svelt are more likely to be svelt. A statistical observation not a guarranteed result. The explanation is reckoned to be part nurture and partly a contentious theory about junk DNA.

But like all these things, far too many people latch on to the theory that allows them to feel comfortable about themselves, to the detriment of their health/wealth/friend/etc. I happen feel good in Red - but others have different theories. I - of course - hold to the correct one.
