So after this big long discussion and evaluation Michael, whats your synopsis??.
Everything from Genes, to allergies, to corporate mass produced food makes you FAT.
The time comes to answer the question: "What makes you burn calories? , so you don't get fat " ??
I'm surprised you keep putting up articles and stuff that blame everything but the people themselves for being fat. Personal accountability and decisions make a person Fat or not.
The info is out there. You've stated every reason why fat people are fat, but it hasn't changed anything.
Seriously, this thread should end..
Its not Rocket Science.
Its Basic Accounting. as in Calories > Expenditure = Fat
