Another impact that obesity may have on society is the absolute predjudice that people so casually express about overweight people...even in the workplace! How hurtful that is!

The Global Paradox...not a paradox at all! People overeat because their body is STILL looking for what it needs...NUTRIENTS! As you are aware, they are missing in the standard American diet. We processed the heck outta of, so it's no longer in the food. And overeating results. Just go to one of those buffets and watch what people do...and eat! Sometimes I wonder where they put it all. But empty food may food your belly for a little while...just like forgetting to put oil in your engine. Sooner or later, something bad happens. When you eat nutrient DENSE foods, you body quickly finds what it needs, then signals you to STOP! It amazes me that when I eat RIGHT, how little other things I tend to want...and how easily I fill up. I also find it interesting that Americanization of the Mexican diet has caused them to blow up with obesity and diabetes. Thanks again for the highly informative post. Now to see IF I can get that issue. Dr. Jack === Great post!
