I hear what you are saying, and you are right. However, you just cannot deny the fact that it is a lot easier for some. I have seen really thin people, or pear shaped people with washboard stomachs cram food down their throat like it going out of style, and I have also seen people who only eat maybe one or two meals a day who are a bit more than obese. Neither of these people regularly engaged in exercising either. There is truth to BOTH arguments.

The severe obesity problem is from low nutrient foods that are from animals that are given growth hormones and then those homones get in you..

plus some people eat alot in an effort to get the nutrients they need but can not get because the food today is genetically modified to grow fast and with litttle nutrient value.

I don't accept that its peoples fault and that they are lazy...some people really react to those growth hormones..and girls mature really early because of the female hormones injected into the animals..ever wonder why there are so many men having problems with their sexuality...now you know why..and its done on purpose..to weaken the males position in life

I don't disagree that is a factor but there are other factors like toxins in the food, low nutrient dense foods like refined sugar and white flour, high fat content diets, diets with few natural fruits and vegetables, sedentary life styles, etc. etc. etc.

I love this guy's views. Simply awesome. Clear, to the point, and totally against the FDA and pharm industry.

i know sooo many fat people who say "i'm fat because of genetics" i know 1, yes, 1 person who is fat and is very active. The rest never get off their fat asses.

Let me just say that while he is mostly right, genetics may not make you completely the way you are however, they can make it more difficult to keep from or to lose weight, I mean you can love to eat healthy and be active and still be overweight. I personally eat salads and healthy food and I am fat, but I have friends who spend 10 bucks on lunch a day and buy up half the taco bell menu for lunch and they are like 120lbs so to say that nature isn't a key part is wrong.
