22:22 "they fear hunger and working out more then death itself" So true. I work in a big company and I notice that obese people usually die within 1-2 years after retirement. It is like going to work everyday is their only activity, after retirement they just eat themselves to death ...

[@ColonelHoganStalag13]

Well let's not forget even if they weren't current smokers, a good number of Boomers and Gen X who are at retirement age were smokers. The effects on the body don't reverse themselves because someone chose to give up smoking. Hardening the arteries through years of smoking and then a horrible diet was a bad combination. If they also were taking anti-depressants or some other medication with known side effects, they were lucky to make it to retirement at all.

My best friend died to obesity. My best attempts to get her to diet and exercise with me always fell on deaf ears. Breaking furniture just by sitting on it wasn't enough to make her realize maybe she should lose some weight. Already suffered a non-fatal heart attack once, and still there was no jolt to turn her life around. Getting diabetes (the non-genetic kind) still wasn't enough to scare her into changing her lifestyle. I still miss her so much, but I still know good and well she would still be eating pizza, donuts, and french fries everyday had she survived. :(

43:31 “if we live in a society based on truth a lot of people will become violent” I believe that the opposite could happen, can’t really know as it hasn’t been tested socially wide, but in my personal life and everybody that I see around me, the most destructive and dangerous times have been when there’s just so much dissonance between what’s happening, what everybody tells you, what you are supposed to do, while over and over again the outcome is not at all what your were expecting… and would never be. Imagine you are in a tennis match, you are told to just hit the ball to the ground, that that’s the way to play and win. The referee is constantly giving the other points, while you are constantly losing. Just for once you would like to see what scoring a point is like, you see others playing by different rules, yet everybody and their mothers TELL YOU that everything will be fine, to continue hitting the ball straight to the ground, that it must be an attitude or a choice of shirt color problem, that it’s no wonder that with such negativity there hasn’t been a win. That would over time build enough resentment, feelings of being taken advantage of, the lies, etc… I believe a big chunk of the violence today it’s totally because of the delusional approach we have to absolutely everything: family, health, friendships, social interactions, financial responsibility (money is somehow infinite to many), etc

[@sluggo562]

Totally. I smoked about half a pack a day for ten years, switched to vaping and cigars and pipes but used them a lot for about 5 years, then switched to tobacco based snus. That's was for about five years now, and I still have zero tooth coloring which is the horror story people talk about with snus. Now I use zyn like products the majority of the time, with maybe one, sometimes two, snus pouches a day just to get that flavour again as a treat. XQS makes a cactus sour flavour which is my favourite. You need to avoid any product with sugar or molasses in them because they'll rot your teeth. So read the ingredients. But I'm one year into zyn with occassional snus and it's smooth sailing. I debate quitting entirely but it's a struggle. I lost 50 lbs fasting for four months in 2021 and found it easier to give up food for that than to quit nicotine entirely. Anyway that's been my path and it's worked great if you don't count the final hurdle of giving up the zyn. @@drazicmilosovic1065

Some poeple just stop producing insulin at some point of life. My colleague, really fit and active guy, had diabetes onset around 40, now he takes insulin (swithcing to low carb let him minimise the dosage though). His daugter on the other hand, started having issues at 7. So this is not black and white. But I bet "healthy obese" lady had a myriad of other issues. Hypertension only could have killed her easily - either by causing a stroke or by gradually removing her kidney function. You can live with long term illnesses, but you have to take care of your condition and overall level of fitness.

[@Anonymous-ld7je]

Ceasing to produce insulin does not make you obese. I know multiple type 1 diabetics that are a healthy weight

[@RRaquello]

@@Anonymous-ld7je Isn't it your obligation to yourself, if you know you have this condition, to maintain a healthy weight, just to mitigate the worst effects of the condition? The medical condition itself isn't the person's fault, but their refusing to adapt themselves to their medical issues is. My own main medical condition is poor eyesight. That isn't my fault, but if I won't wear glasses (or contact lenses) because I refuse to give into "societal judgements" about bad eyesight, and then I fall down a manhole because I didn't see it, whose fault is that?

51:00 "Skinny people get sick easier" People really don't understand that its referring to emaciated and undernourished people.

[@ColonelHoganStalag13]

But they were coming right off the tail end of the Great Depression (which the war ended) where malnutrition was a real problem. Caloric restriction wasn't something they were practicing out of choice but as a symptom of being poor and limited to what was available. Rickets is something we don't hear about today because vitamin D isn't hard to get. Back then, it was a genuine concern and was screened for in processing recruits. Different time, different problems.

[@TerjeDahlT]

Type 1 diabetes is caused by auto-immunity: It is caused by the body's immune system attacking and killing all the beta-cells in the pancreas. I most often occurs in 6-year olds, but may also occur when entering or exiting puberty or middle age. There is a genetic component, but there are now thousands of cases where a dietary intervention has been shown to be able to halt the attack, thereby sparing victims a life of insulin injections and an early death. Type 2 diabetes is what was called "old age diabetes". Although now we see it even in children. It is basically caused by overloading the system to such an extent that it shuts down. But unless the body has been pushed so hard that all the beta cells have died, it can be recovered from. There is of course a genetic component to this variety too in how much abuse the body can tolerate before it reacts accordingly. Type 2 diabetes is not caused by obesity, but rather it is caused by the same thing that also caused obesity - excessive carbohydrates. Therefore, a relatively lean looking people can also get type 2 diabetes.

[@ColonelHoganStalag13]

It's funny you should mention doctors are done telling people to lose weight and wasting their time. How often do you see doctors who are out of shape?
