Reply #81: If it was mindset it would just be the United States

I keep pointing to places that don't have a car culture that also have an epidemic.

It is just not the fact that people are lazy and drive everywhere

Now I take it you are a doctor. To the placard, I would easily quality, for about three weeks of the year... due to some serious issues, that flare up with my knees. Long story. So I'd not be that judgmental. I just don't ask for it.

And yes I pointed to ONE factor... but I suspect that and the chemicals in the soil and food are probably more related to this world wide epydemic than simply the car culture, If it was just the car culture, then Paraguay would not have the rates of obesity it has today, neither would the country side in Mexico where women still burn those 7,000 calories and are now fatter than ever,

Just saying.
