The average age of the population is also steadily rising. Experts say the traditional Japanese diet -- which is low in fatty foods -- helps explain that longevity."
THAT'S ONE OF THE BEST POSTS IN ET HISTORY. the solution is to know your calories and protein/carb/fat ratios and eat like a cave man as much as possible. CONTRARY TO WHAT THE HOLY BABBLE SAYS, WE DID EVOLVE AND WE DID NOT EVOLVE TO EAT WHAT WE EAT NOW. i would just like to add that you don't have to eat meat to get protein. i eat a lot of protein, from protein powders, and they have no artificial crap in it.
yeah, i have one in my back yard. seriously, you can get protein without slaughtering animals. and as i've said before, in the future, we will grow body parts without brains. no animals will need to suffer so we can use their bodies.

Idiots that are eating this crap are driving up MY health care insurance costs! it's about time something is done about it! While they are at it BAN ATKINS TOO!
Well, this is pathetic. Bad enough that the smokers, drug addicts and alkies drive up health care costs. And these people actually ban together politically to have the "rights of the obese." Poll Says Hospitals Burdened by Obese Patients Thu 18 December, 2003 21:26 WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. hospitals are buying expensive new equipment such as reinforced toilets and oversized beds to treat the growing number of severely obese patients, according to a survey released on Thursday. Novation, a group-purchasing organization for hospitals and other health-care institutions, found that hospitals are seeing more severely obese patients, people who are overweight by at least 100 pounds. The group quoted 80 percent of hospitals as saying they had treated more severely obese patients in the last year than ever before, with 17 percent saying they had remodeled to accommodate the largest patients. "We are finding that hospitals across the country are buying more large-size beds, larger blood pressure cuffs, wider, reinforced wheelchairs and larger versions of other basic supplies to adjust to patient needs," Jody Hatcher, senior vice president of Novation, said in a statement. More than 30 percent of U.S. adults are obese, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This translates to 59 million people. Obesity is defined as having a body mass index of 30 or more. BMI is a measure of weight versus height, and serious health implications such as heart disease kick in at BMIs of 30 and above. This can mean being as few as 30 pounds above desired weight. But as obesity becomes more common in the United States, so does extreme obesity. Web sites such as http://fatcities.com offer furniture to accommodate people weighing 500 pounds and more, while http://funeraldepot.com has a line of oversized caskets. Wausau Hospital in Wausau, Wisconsin, told Novation it spent $200,000 this year to remodel rooms, order special equipment and train staff to deal with extremely obese patients. "We've had to buy special, longer surgical gloves and even needles and syringes," said Kent Demien, director of materials management at Wausau. "Standard equipment becomes obsolete on many of our larger patients." Demien said many patients or hospital visitors are too heavy for a wall-mounted toilet, which can handle up to 300 pounds. The hospital plans to replace them with pedestal commodes that can support 2,000 pounds. The Novation survey polled administrators from 69 U.S. hospitals representing small, rural hospitals and large urban centers.
Well it kind of figures doesn't it? If you are obese you are going to be spending time in a hospital. I spend a lot of time in hospitals and I will tell you a lot of those patients are pretty fat. The weird thing is so are a lot of the nurses. No joke. I love that photo of the mouse though. That is really cute. Looks like me.
You three stooges owe LongShot an apology. I am waiting... http://www.jsonline.com/alive/news/dec03/194291.asp ATKINS SUKS! ORNISH RULES! HA!
