[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why single out “white/American” people? If you come to a party any of my Indian clan’s homes you’ll see a buffet of samosas, parathas, deep-fried poori, creamy dals and meat dishes, buttery biryanis and all manner of sweets. We don’t have special genes. These are occasional treats and we take small portions.[/quote] Yes! I am Indian-American and was going to say the same. Way unhealthier than that stuff OP listed. And yes [b]our community is "healthy" as adults[/b] - that's mostly just a socioeconomic thing.[/quote] Indian-American here, but I have to laugh at the bolded - how many uncles and aunties do you know with high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease, etc.? My parents are wealthy and they both exercise daily, but Indians are genetically predisposed to this stuff, even the ones who exercise daily and have a lot of money. [/quote]
