That's true. But as I understand the numbers, obesity related illness promises to be the largest drain on our healthcare system EVER & the impact spans across generations. The projected #s I've seen are truly frightening, estimates of up to 90% of our tax-dollars will need to go towards HC. A scare tactic, certainly, but then I dunno... when I start thinking about sedentary effects (which include osteo), diabetes, cardiovascular disease... its within my ability to imagine. There are an awful lot of fat, lazy, sickly-looking ppl staggering around.
And its true, skinny mice far outlive the fat ones. But that doesn't make them healthy, skinny mice.
