I’m not sure what you disagree with. As people age, they should reduce their weight. In many cases it happens naturally. I see, families upset with their elders because, “They’re sooooooo skinny.” Fact is, their metabolism draws down. Then heart doesn’t work as hard.
True they may be weak, and they should take nutrients and supplements, and adhere to a good diet. Walking is good for them. Yoga too, if they can tolerate it.
But well meaning family members trying to stuff them with bad carbs.
I know too, that depression reduces the appetite, but my point was to counter the nonsense that fat people live longer.
Obesity in America is a travesty. I see people at work with their big gulp diet drinks. Sipping all day. They don’t gain, they don’t lose. Their glycogen storage is never depleted so they NEVER burn up fat.
“As people age, they should reduce their weight. In many cases it happens naturally.
Well you were pointing out that you don’t see big fat 60 70 80 year olds as sort of evidence that most big fats don’t get that old.
I was just saying they lose weight at that time in their lives for the most part.
