Hugging and Chalking

This blog is about obesity and the inanity/insanity it spawns, the encroaching lawsuits and growing diet industry. Obesity is a matter of genes and personal responsibility. You can have an endocrine problem, or you can have a balance problem (too many calories and too little exercise). It’s not where you eat, but how much you eat; it’s not McDonald’s fault, or Mama’s fault, or Washington’s fault if your body is too fat or too thin. Rosabelle.

High-Fat Diets and Cognitive Impairment

"High-fat diets may be associated with an increased risk of heart disease, hypertension, and diabetes. New evidence presented at the 2004 Neuroscience conference now shows that cognitive impairment, with loss of learning ability and memory, may be 1 more substantial drawback to this dietary strategy." Highlights of the Society for Neuroscience 34th Annual Meeting at Medscape.com
