Yeah, the stats don't lie. Sure, there's bound to be an obeast with clean arteries somewhere or another without a liver riddled with fat but en masse (lol) obesity is terrible for health. It's disturbing that there is still debate over this. It's a fucken mental illness. Only addiction can account for the absolute denial and self delusion of the hams. I think the focus needs to turn to the mental side of the battle. Not that I care about fats on a personal level, but just to try and minimise the economic disaster that is obesity. Fats in society are like excess fat on a body. Not only does it do no good but it actually fucks a body up.
