“This demonization of fat flies in the face of not just psychology (calling people names never made anyone thin), but economics and medical science, too. Persuasive, peer-reviewed evidence abounds that \u2013 hold onto your stethoscope \u2013 fat is blown out of proportion as a health risk and may actually confer some protection against early death. Mortality analyses from the Centers for Disease Control and elsewhere show that \u201coverweight\u201d people actually outlive those in the government-defined \u201cnormal\u201d range. Other research makes it evident that diet and activity habits wield far more impact than weight on individuals\u2019 health status. And, since diets don\u2019t work, our government is spending millions of health \u201ccare\u201d dollars on programs doomed to failure.<\/p>\n

Even the well-meaning talk about obesity isn\u2019t doing any good. It hasn\u2019t made people thinner \u2013 and is downright damaging. Eating disorders, poor body image, stress and discrimination are collateral damage in our war against fat. Few of us are at peace with our bodies, whether because we\u2019re fat or afraid of getting that way. That very stress can initiate or aggravate some so-called \u201cobesity-related\u201d conditions, like diabetes and hypertension, helping to explain why they\u2019re often associated with weight.<\/p>\n

For those who try to reduce, whether freelance or under doctor\u2019s orders, only a tiny minority keep it off more than a couple years. Most regain the weight regardless of whether they maintain their diets or exercise programs. It is well-established that biological safeguards \u2013 some we understand and others we don\u2019t \u2013 cause our bodies to resist long-term weight loss.<\/p>\n

As for \u201ctry, try again,\u201d that\u2019s even worse: Weight-cycling has been found to cause some of the very conditions, like cardiovascular disease, weight losers seek to avoid. (Fat but stable-weight people log better outcomes.) Evidence is scarce, in any case, that losing weight prolongs life \u2013 the vast majority of studies show that weight losers have decreased longevity, even when the loss is intentional.” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
