    Silent Spring, while met with fierce denial from chemical companies, spurred a reversal in national pesticide policy—leading to a nationwide ban on DDT and other pesticides.

    How to correct is the big problem? Deny, Deny, Deny seems to be prevalent. We are all exposed to the same food.

    I believe it is time to attack our food supply, in other words, processed commercial food. World's Fattest Countries - Forbes.com - More information.

    Analysis is probably of little interest to most, except for those writing books, which don't sell.

    No fat prisoners came out of Japanese POW camps after the WW11.
    The cause was obvious, lack of food. May we extrapolate and draw a similar conclusion for obesity.

    I don't think I know any obese men and women anymore. I am told they are called stocky and curvy now.I have become a bag of bones and I used to be slender.

    Sadly, people won't give up what is bad for them even when 75% of medical costs in the United States can be attributed to diet alone.
