People in the 70s and early 80s were in better shape

I watch the incredible hulk TV show on a regular basis and I noticed how much slimmer people were back then compared to now, people actually had jaw lines, now it seems rare to me to see a jaw line

That's because people smoke and drank coffee a lot; you have an appetite suppressant (nicotine) and increased metabolism (caffeine).

There may be some truth to that, also it seems like it's ''ok'' to be fat today, people don't even feel ashamed of being fat nowadays

We played outside a lot and fast food was a once a week treat instead of a way of life. The meals weren't supersized back then, either.

Up until the mid-90's, when he glyphosate poisoning began, most everyone was skinny. Being overweight in high school and college back then was rare.

All countries that have their food poisoned with glyphosate are having the obesity epidemic, while the countries that don't use glyphosate are not. It contaminates almost all soy, corn, canola, wheat products and poisons almost all Americans except those which avoid it specifically.

all from the same company that brought us agent orange

Fast food in and of itself has nothing to do with .... except for the glyphosate issue that poisons all fast food. We had just as much fast food back then and ate tons of it yet everyone was still skinny.


You're being poisoned.
