We were slim, trim and fin in the 1950s and 60s, and bulging out of our clothes by the year 2000...
Americans didnt just spontaneously begin to overeat for no reason - food producers were to blame. Foods began to be engineered so Americans would eat more, and more, and more.
It doesn't take long to realize Americans are being bred for obesity, like domesticated animals in a feeding pen. For comparison, Western Europeans remain relatively lean. And while diet books place the blame on sugar, calories and fat, the fortification of foods with a metallic mineral is more likely to account for the increasing waistlines of Americans...
This book explains how the diabetic epidemic was spawned by changes in American foods beginning in the early 1970s. Read what you can do to side step this plague of obesity by adding or removing dietary factors that increase or decrease weight.
