Topic: Consumption - Obesity

Energy. It all comes down to energy. Our stomachs are designed to break down meat, fruits, vegetables: edible material that contain essential body nutrients, such as carbohydrates, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals...basically we (1) fill our stomachs with material that have atoms extremely close together and then (2) break them down to space those atoms apart from each other and release energy.

So it's all about energy.

The quality of the energy is what is causing many of our problems. For cattle, they are treated to such poor-conditions that their vibrations are low. Then we eat the meat and ultimately sustain an equivalently low level of energy out of it. So many are malnourished of energy and have the urge to eat more and eat more and eat more. The accumulation of saturated fats, and what-not, build up and people become obese.

So people are either ignorant to how their body is intended to 'work' or they are just ridiculously compelled to eat more and more. I think the former is plaudible considering all of the misconceptions imposed in our textbooks and out of the mouths of our self-proclaimed experts.

The stomach's primary purpose is not to be filled up. However due to the dismal levels of energy in our food, we have to eat more to sustain our energy levels.

Producers impose cattle to poor-conditions. Producers chemicalize their products as to follow quantity and therefore profit, instead of quality abundant with energy. Genetic-manipulation is increasing output, for let's say apples for example, by a multiple of 3. Accordingly, now one must eat 3 of these apples to intake the same proportion of energy it would take only 1 apple in the past.

Look at the Egyptian days, ancient-depictions of the physiques of those of our past. How many obese people do you see drawn? Are they just exaggerating? Or did those people work-out like Martha Stewart on prozac? I think neither. I think the human body is naturally in that form when the energy levels of our food are not tampered with.

Namaste.

I don't think it means much. How many obese people do you see on TV and ads?

Re: Consumption - Obesity

You're actually right on, Blackbox, and this has been even scientifically known for years. In fact, all evidence gathered by forensic anthropologists, etc, suggest that modern man is a far, far, far cry from the sheer capabliities of our ancestors. I wish I had the article and my friend who informed me of htis article is now out of the country and I wouldn't be able to get it, but I'll go look for it sometime today. They were digging up remains at an old caslte sight, a battle sight, and the discovered a man who was shot from the castle wall almost a mile and a half away. Now, they did some mathematics and intuitive work and discovered that the arrow had to have come from teh castle wall despite that increadible difference. (i think thery actually had the body of the person who fired it, and they matched the arrows too, no clue) Now, a mile and a half away is an increadible difference, and there are few and far between people nowadays who would even begin to baost of the possibliity of this. And yet, it seems to have been done.

What one has to remember about ancient depictions of people is that there may well have been 'fat' people, but these 'fat' people would look nothing like what has become obesity in modern society. Someone who weighed a great deal in the old days wouldn't look 'obese' like we know it now. Because even then someone who ate a lot or whatever would have had to move around more, do more, be more alive and in the physical moment than they usually do today.

Also, when speaking of depicitions of the upper class in former societies, it was generally not so much a good idea to depict someone as being obese, or overweight, unless you knew this person took some pride in it. (which also was more common.. back in the day being slightly overweight meant you had the resources to be that way, which was not a common thing in a lot of cilivizations).

I don't think they are comparable ermolai.

Kitsch culture a.k.a. Garbage Media is not the same thing as the writings of the Egyptians...or any society with this style of symbolic imagery. Anyways, it doesn't really matter. I'm just implying that civilizations in the past did not have this problem with weight because their food had high levels of energy, therefore they did not consume themselves to obesity.

Re: Consumption - Obesity

Maybe obesity is a part of the Reptilian Plan. I mean, look at Jabba The Hut.
And that was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far, away! If they prefer low-vibe rotten stuff, maybe they are trying to fatten us up with alot of low-vibe meat. Just a cheery thought! Have a Jabba free day!

Re: Consumption - Obesity

How do you know that was Mr.Oyster? Maybe it was a spy Oyster using my screen
name. Think about it.

p.s. note the lack of deliberately bad grammar. Or, as he would put it, "gramma."
Watch out! If he gets word of your snippy post, he'll go ballistic. And when oysters go ballistic, it's....well, lets hope we don't find out!
