the american health system, already dysfunctional, will implode within 5 years as the impact of fat people collides with reality.

a college nurse told me that she regularly sees teens with blood sugars of 600 (normal 70-120).

type-2 diabetes used to be a disease of the elderly. but now with high fructose corn syrup in almost every food product, type-2 has gravitated downwards to young people.

the reality is--you can't eat what the majority of americans eat daily and stay healthy, period, regardless of republican or democrat politics! not to mention no exercise, sitting in a recliner, watching tv an average of 8 hours per day.

not to mention no exercise, sitting in a recliner, watching tv an average of 8 hours per day.....and sitting at the computer on Free Republic for most of the day!!!!!

"not to mention no exercise, sitting in a recliner, watching tv an average of 8 hours per day."

For the benefit of many people reading this thread, substitute "reading FR" for "watching tv".

Although I'm sure many of these people have typing muscles of steel.
