We got religion from a dietician we dealt with during a family member's cardiac stay in hospital. Low fat does not necessarily equal a healthy diet. Eating a well-balanced diet, your moderation in all things, where you take don't take in more than your burn off, does. If people don't want to exercise they they shouldn't eat more than they can work off. About the only things I try to keep out of my mouth are refined sugars and trans-fats. I eat what I want, but make sure I burn off anything I overindulge in. Works pretty well. You don't need to exercise like a fiend if you don't overeat.

Much to what you say. People need to know their own body and what burns off best. Once they know their engine type, the better able they are to fuel it.

The problem is that no ones knows what a well-balance diet is? But I think I figure it out the truth after all those conflicting medical studies:

1. The Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.

3. The Japanese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans

4. The Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than the Americans.

CONCLUSION:

Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.
