Forget the diet, IMO the reason the teens of today will not have longevity is because they sit on their a$$es all day. Hard work and exercise will take up a lot of slack from the diet department.

Completely agree. It isn't diet...it is inactivity and laziness.

Inactivity is a form of suicide.

I agree partly with what you said. I place most of the blame on the Federal Government for putting their nose where it did not belong with the food pyramid. This was junk science at the worst. Stalin would envy the results with metabolic syndrome epidemic in all age groups. It is simple. Socialists governments always kill.
