A happier and healthier life for one. More energy, better mental state and brain function is important to me. Sexual health. All these issues are important to me.

Im not too concerned with how long I live, I just want to live the best I can.

Ignorance is bliss.

Just wait until you hit 30 and your metabolism changes.

Eh, I exercise an hour a day and don't eat meat or fried food (I have a french fry here and there but its rare). So when 30 rolls around, I'll probably still be 90lbs and under 5ft eating easy mac

Same here, that's why I've been stress free for 22 years. That's something to worry about more than an artificial additive...

Fear? Im begining to get a peak at your mental state with the words you choose.

We are all free to eat what we want, but dont fool yourself, thats my point.

2012 is the end of the Age of Pisces and the beginning of the Age of Aquarius. We are not going to die.

Anyway, obesity-related health-care costs reached an estimated $75 billion in 2003, and taxpayers foot the bill for about half of those expenses through Medicare and Medicaid.

Researchers found total obesity-related health-care costs varied greatly from state to state, ranging from a low of $87 million in Wyoming to a high of $7.7 billion in California.

I support additional taxes on fast/junk food to help us get back some of what we lose everyday.

Want to know something that is kinda scary and yet common sense-we all have some cancer right now and everyone that dies will be found to have some cancer-it's how much it grows that is the problem.

Cancer is basically an abnormally growing, usually adversive change in something cellular. It's like saying I am sick, that could mean everything from a sore stomach to having the flu really bad to walking pneumonia. Because it is so broad everything that has anything to do with cancer is like saying I have cancer.

So back to the topic as well-tortinos pizzas taste great too sometimes.

Grains are a big part of the formation of cancer. The metabolism of cancer is anerobic (metabolizes without oxygen) and the introduction of oxygen to specific cells would help treat cancer. It is completely treatable, but there's too much money involved for so many people that they refuse to use the correct treatments. Instead they pump cancer patients full of drugs.

Diabetes can be treated easier than it is already. It's called a pancreas transplant. I am not saying people deserve it if they screwed up their bodies, but some people are born with diabetes and I think they should be given the chance to have a more normal life.

I also feel the same way about liver and kidney transplants. If you screwed up your liver and kidneys with alcohol and drugs you shouldn't receive those transplants. It's b.s.

Some foods actually contribute to the development of cancer; other foods lessen the risk.

No, not directed at you, but now that you got into it, what is "way off"? Are you saying WebMD is a "shady" site or ?

Ok...I gotcha.

If that is the case, no Carbon, I was not calling you (or anyone else in this thread) fat. That would be idiocy since I have never meet any of you.
