Although there is a genetic aspect to obesity that hardly explains the massive increase in obesity in this country (and in many others also) that has occurred over the last fifty years. What it comes down to is that people tend to be eating more and exercising less, issues that are generally completely under the control of the individual, or, in the case of children, their parents or guardians. -- James Leo Ryan --- Austin, Texas --- taliesinsoft(a)me.com

You can't admit that that there is a big genetic factor and in the same breath talk about how so "completely" something is under the control of someone. -- dorayme

It doesn't hurt us. Howard, are you serious? Get out more, mate and visit a general hospital, go visit 50 doctors and ask them about their patients... -- dorayme |
