[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP that said microplastics is totally right.  Along with the hormones in the water and the other chemicals. And antibiotics in food. Their gut biome is totally shot and that’s one of the biggest factors for weight gain.

I disageee its screens or sugar.  I grew up in the 70s.  We ate dessert every day.  We brought Ring Dings and Little Debbie cakes for lunch.  We had soda and candy bar vending machines at high school and ice cream sold at all the cafeterias.  We ate sugar!  And then we came home and watched 7 hours of TV until bed.  No one was putting us in soccer teams or karate classes or getting us gym membership.  No one jogged.

My gen z kids are in very good shape — they do sports and go to the gym and I refuse to drive them places so they walk or ride their bike.  But as a demographic these kids have two strikes against them because of the chemicals in their food and water.  [/quote]

When you ate processed food the serving size was much, much smaller than today.

Though processed, it was made with sugar and not the corn syrup, and other cheaper ingredients used today.

You were more active in smaller ways.  No online ordering. Had to go somewhere and walk around.  No Wikipedia, go to the library and carry books.  No email. Go to the post office. Walk to the corner mailbox.  So much small movement has been eliminated and we can pretty much be inert! [/quote]
