Adding to The Gross National  Product

THE OLD TIMER FROM PINCHER CREEK

Researchers at the University of Washington five years ago found that – all over the world –  in the 33 years before 2014 children’s obesity shot up 47.1% and obesity shot up 27.5% for humankind overall. The highly respected medical journal, The Lancet, published those findings. To my knowledge, obesity hasn’t improved these last five years. 

My doc says its carbohydrates and sugar that cause obesity and he referred me to a YouTube Video for doctors – Low Carbs for Doctors by Dr. David Unwin. Of course, Big Food (who peddle carbohydrates because they’re cheap to produce) and Big Pharma (who promote obesity because they can sell more pills to obese sick people) tell the booboisie  not to worry about carbs – worry about fatty food, say they. Big Food and Big Pharma are deliberately lying and their bosses should be treated like tobacco merchants and thrown into jail or worse. Obesity causes no end of sickness and cost.
