Another point is if it wasn’t just diet, lifestyle and habits, then why aren’t there more obese people in the USA say 70 years ago?
Back then, people didn’t have enough money for meat and worked in jobs that had you moving around a lot more vs now, most people probably sit in front of a screen or at a desk.
If you go to Asia, people who have to walk a few miles to get to work via public transit also aren’t as overweight because you walk so much. They also eat less meat/carbs, etc..
Here, people fight for the closest parking spot to not walk an extra 2 minutes.
No idea on the brain tumor girl, but 2/3rds or whatever people did not have a brain tumor.
Having some family people who were overweight and already has type 2 diabetes, those cases were all caused by very bad diet (he did exercise a bit) and poor lifestyle choices (alcohol)…
I suppose I felt it’s always nice to blame something else (like my body is different, it’s not my fault), but if people want it bad enough, they will make the change (just had ice cream today…I don’t care enough I guess myself. 🙂 )
