Life Expediency
Life expediency, as measured estimated by the Canadian health care system, takes age into account, and negative factors, diabetes, heart conditions, weight above the obese level, and the like, but does not consider any "positive" factors such a life style. WTF. Well as my doctor put it, "the quality of life may be better, but those factors do not increase the life, according to a number of studies." And guess what, that is what Framingham Study shows. Well how about that, there is no point in excessive exercise, but it may make you feel better about yourself.
We are what we think, according to the old Romans. There is nothing wrong or right, but thinking makes it so.
Are artificial sweeteners appetite stimuli? http://tesspaleojourney.blogspot.ca/2013/07/consumer-warning-media-ignorance-causes.html
And so are tomatoes according to my self testing. Is that why Richard Bernstein warns about tomatoes?
Is the whole developed world obesity issue about appetite stimulus in the food supply, including sugar, wheat, omega 6 oils, and all those other nasty chemicals?
What do I know.
We are what we think, we are what we do, we are what we eat? We know what we should do but we don't always do it. Modern living does it do us any favours? Perhaps not, but we deal with it the best we can. Life expediency, our genes play a part surely?

PS Off topic but is there a chance you can go back to your larger print please Fred, some of us find it easier to read ..thanks.
but the study does not show that, so genes are not part of the expediency calculation. It is therefore just about statistics.
ReplyDeleteHi Fred
ReplyDeleteStatistics, studies, trials are all important, but I still think although it wasn't part of the study our genes must surely play a part?
