Having a good diet helps too.  There's a neighbor that drops by to see my roommate every now and again. He's ballooned up quite a bit in the last 10 years I've lived here and basically eats nothing but 'chinese' food takeout. He is only 26 with really bad stomach acid issues and heartburn. I told him about using honey and how changing your diet can help a ton and every healthy suggestion I had, he turned down. Well, hurry up and die then, fattie.
