Amy Proal has a clear presentation of the evidence that obesity can be caused by certain kinds of gut bacteria at

If a critical causative agent in the mechanisms of a rather negative medical situation is the presence of unusually high amounts of a particular kind of bacteria, then I'd consider it fair to call that a "disease."

To the doubters and nay sayers above ... there is a post at
http://flash.lymenet.org/ubb/Forum1/HTML/032528.html that just rips Trevor Marshall a new one ;).
The post is by "paulscha". Search on the page for the string "posted 18 March 2005 12:50" to find it.
That post raises numerous damning questions.
