I've long suspected that obesity has some inverse relationship to inteIIigence so I decided to think. Admittedly, I've just kinda started researching today, lol, but what I found was PMC3813310 - an article stating that obesity doesn't beget low intelligence. Rather, low intelligence is a precursor to obesity. This isn't just some marginal decrease, either. It's nearly 1/3 of a standard deviation below the norm.
Reason why I bring this up is to get closer to the truth of things. All I have currently is speculation, casual observation and this article but perhaps in voicing tossing the idea ball around may get us closer to figuring this out and even perhaps get an expert (I am not an expert - not even remotely myfieId) opinion on the matter.
What I think is happening is that peoples' growth cycles are beingacceIerated because of D l E T. Think about it - cog decIine and obesity are part and parcel to a g e. Here, I'll Iist off a bunch of observations as well as things I've learnt. SOME MAY BE RELEVANT, SOME MAY NOT. If something is inaccurate, please tell me too.
Asian youthfulness - one of the prevailing stereotypes is that we're really youthful in appearance. I've heard theories about why this is, namely neotenic evoIution (same reason why chihuahuas look like fetaI woIves) that was likely the result of generations upon generations of "seIectivebreeding" cuz emperors be getting around but I'm not so sure if it's that simple.
- Interesting to note is that not only do Japanese women experience menopause at a later time than Caucasian women do, but also experience miIdersymptoms as a result of a greater intake of kaIe and what not. Asians also tend to have a longer Iifeexpectancy, too, but it's hard to tell what factors into what.
Obese ppI's weirdIyaged appearance - another observation about just how oId they tend to be. It's weird, man. I've got obese peers who look like they're 20~+ yrs oIder than me. I've also noted just how terrible their MEMORlES tend to be and how, often times, it's actually people who've Iived here in the West basically all their Iives, no offense.
Speculation as to why - correct me if I'm wrong but I do remember hearing that most cattIe and crap in general have growthhormones to the max in the West. It's also probably why some of my buds' kids are freakishly tall for being like threeish. B ball of 20XX gonna look like scenes out of Spacejaam.
Back in Asia, that wasn't a thing. It was mainly fish (sometimes even FREAAAAAKlNG RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW) that we had anyway.
Seriously, though, if anyone has to add, this is probably mega important to figure out.
Edit - Does k o s h e r have any such additives?
My wife and I just discussed this at dinner tonight. I was born is 1960. The 60’s was the last “decent” decade. The 70’s started the global warming, gas shortages, False flag bs and so forth. The 80’s started the food chain escalation , buyouts of small farms, butchers, small town assault. We grew up in farm country and had family and friends dependent on ag, living in small rural communities. There was a huge shift in the 80’s. Shit just got worse every decade there after. Looking back there always seemed to be a themes that ran for years on end, then would take a break and re-surface later, stronger and more evil. Happy New Year!
