Americans definitely have gotten fatter, but didn't they redefine what constitutes obesity back in the 80s? And isn't the BMI crap? I'm pretty sure that most, if not all, bodybuilders rate as obese on the BMI.
I stand by my statement that the inclusion of HFCS is the #1 cause for obesity in the US. It's not just the calories, but the messed up stuff it does to your body.
HFCS is a small factor, but eating a grain based diet rather than veggie/fruit based diet is mostly to blame. Eat lean meat, veggies, fruits, nuts, seeds and most people's health makes a drastic uturn for the better. Unfortunately, we are left to fend for ourselves wrt health because our country treats symptoms. Most people with high blood pressure get high blood pressure as a warning their diet is shit. They take the meds to mask the symptom, but ignore the problem. Then their cholesterol goes to shit, they get meds for that, then they get diabetes and they take meds for that. If they would just tend to the diet when thy got hyprtension to begin with, they would never have to take a single med. But, we're fat and lazy and it's easier to take a pill than alter your lifestyle.
Yes it's crap. I'm 189 pounds and I am considered over weight at 6'1. All body builders rate obese for sure.And isn't the BMI crap? I'm pretty sure that most, if not all, bodybuilders rate as obese on the BMI.
Does the grain-based diet also account for the rise in diabetes since the last-70s?
I wholeheartedly agree that allopathic is lacking in preventative ability. That's why I also include naturopathic medicine and general preventative measures.
That's the weird dichotomy of nature: survival of the fittest and taking the path of least resistance. Modern civilization is destroying the former part, and thereby destroying the people.

That's why they are bullshit. Obviously I am no where near overweight, and you probably aren't either.Really? I'm like 183 or so right now at 5'9 and although I have some fat to lose, I don't feel "overweight".

Yeah, but we are in the small minority. Those numbers aren't skewed because of body builders. They are skewed because people are god damn fatasses.

Yup.
I was out visiting my Dad this weekend and I went to my sisters dance class... Half of the girls in the class were huge. Big fat whales.
Eating habits in this country have gone to shit. People are clueless when it comes to diet and exercise. It's a problem.
