I asked a question anonymously today about why some socio cultural groups had higher rates of obesity than others
One person said it was because of poverty dictating the obese group did not have the resources to buy healthy foods that cost more than chips or McDonalds cheese burgers
They pointed out the scientists realized when poverty was accounted for by isolating for this factor - there was no difference whatsoever between races when it come to how fat or fit or thin the children or adults were
I asked another question previously about why abused children had higher rates of obesity than happy children
If you look at families like the McCains - Cindy McCain had 5 biological children and 1 adopted child and while the biological children are all a healthy weight. The adopted child is severely and morbidly obese.
One person said food becomes comfort when your depressed
So the question you need to ask is - what leads to poverty and depression if poverty and depression are the roots of obesity?
The answer I think is emotional filth and junk
Chinese communities have lower rates of obesity because Chinese culture rejects things like rap and hip hop and songs about gangs and violence and drugs
Chinese communities focus on building careers and devotion to their family and their jobs
Jewish communities have lower rates of obesity because Jewish religiosity makes people live a clean life where they avoid things like porn or smoking or drug use or beer since its unkosher except during celebrations
Very religious Jewish woman focus on things like being productive - doing volunteer work - serving their community - worshiping their God - supporting their female friends - they don't listen to Beyonce or Mariah Carey or Ariana Grande
When you eat a healthy spiritual diet by avoiding Kitsch - you also eat a healthy physical diet by avoiding junk food since depression increases junk food and impedes fasting and food portion control

The heart that avoids indulgence and luxury and pleasure and filth - becomes the body that eats carrots and eggs for lunch
