Dumbing down more stupid behavior.

I seriously doubt ADD is a genuine disease of any kind, nor obesity or alcoholism.

I do think much of obesity is genetic, and thus we should be a bit compassionate about fat people. It’s not as simple as “eats too much” or “just don’t eat”. Many people seem to get naturally fat, and have terrible time losing weight. Because the opposite also exists (I was weight-deprived until I got elder). There are people who seem to sit on the fence, and either stay stable, or can turn on a dime their weight status (a cousin is another example).

but But BUT they told us for years it’s genetic...

Big Pharma trying to create even MORE customers.

How about pederasty or gender dysphoria? Or sexual addiction?

[ealgeone]

NO. We’re not paying for slobs who lay around and eat chips and never exercise.

Foods packaged with corn syrup & sodium.

I’m so glad I’m no longer a nurse(after being fired for not taking the vaccines at age 64).

Health care and medicine in America is embarrassing. Sad watching the decline. Oh well.

You’re fat AND stupid!

Could stop being gluttons as the number of plates depict.

And yet thinking you’re the opposite sex is celebrated. And they’ll cut you up to macabrelly resemble the opposite sex.

I read a medical article about a women received a fecal transplant from her obese daughter. The women soon became obese.

[Wuli]

Not in all cases.

One thing to check out if other obvious reasons, overeating, high calorie sodas etc, have been ruled out, is birth control pills. I have no prejudice about them but have observed that those whom I know who have, or are, using them, have a hard time with keeping their weight at a desired level. Everybody has to figure out for themselves what they should do about their weight as there are so many factors that affect one person and not another. Healthy eating is beneficial in any case and can be tailored to calorie needs. Times when I was over my preferred weight, were due to indulgence rather than sensible eating. I had to get myself in control and make a choice and I did and am happy for it. Not always arguing with myself over a settled decision.

Manufactured “food” is about as safe and reliable as the convenience of Big government and Big Pharma.

You have to eat it to find out what’s in it. Most never catch on.

Weren’t people with ADHD and obesity problems born that way and should therefore be tolerated...like homosexuals who were born that way?
