When you live an unhealthy life, we all pick up the tab when you get older. <br /><br />Not telling anyone that they don't have freedom of choice, but we should be smarter than to think our decisions don't affect each other on a greater level.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-37940923394835397162012-03-16T18:41:59.415-06:002012-03-16T18:41:59.415-06:00The health of people doed matter.

Burgers may make people happy, but in the future will they be happy living with an obese body, requiring people to help them with everyday tasks and suffering painful operations?<br /><br />Of course this is extreme, but i exaggerate to make a point. Today 1 in 4 British people are Obese, I believe this is largely due to lack of understanding and because we don't support a healthy way of living in everyday society.<br /><br />Articles like this speak the truth, past all the marketing lies of what you should eat and drink, and tell people of the harsh reality of what they're doing to themselves.Paulhttp://findingsanctuary.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-17886243581931446642012-03-16T06:03:03.857-06:002012-03-16T06:03:03.857-06:00Here's my hypothesis: Today's junk food is...Here's my hypothesis: Today's junk food is far more potent than junk food of 20 years ago, and far less potent than it will be in another 20 years (unless there is a major change). Here's why: Junk food "evolves" to be more and more addictive. What I mean by evolved is that food companies are constantly introducing new junk foods, but only a few have true staying power in the marketplace. For instance, when you count generics, there have probably been hundreds of fruit-flavored breakfast cereals since the 1970s, but as others come and go, Froot Loops and Fruity Pebbles are still there. In a sense, it's Darwinism in the marketplace. OK, I know it's not true evolution, but the idea is that the most addictive junk foods rise to dominate the food market until they replaced by another that is even more addictive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21280038.post-65069650633519272912012-03-16T01:20:46.780-06:002012-03-16T01:20:46.780-06:00Josh is right, overall You live one life, and live...Josh is right, overall You live one life, and live it to the fullest.

At times it may be difficult to tell the difference, but not this time.<br /><br />If he was melancholic, he'd be talking about bourbon, not coke.<br /><br />For my own two cents, attitude regarding eating means as much as what you eat. Eat happily and you'll be healthier, even if its crap. Eat stressed, and I don't think it matters if you're consuming raw kale and organ meats, your health will suck. So satiric or not, Josh has a point.

Last time I checked, happiness is better than unhappiness.<br /><br />Of course, there are those fitness-ninnies out there who believe they know better than the rest about how to be happy and healthy.
