Could our diets and lifestyles make whatever might be genetically "wrong" with us worse?
I don't have any other info on this, but my own opinion or theory.
I say, I think it is more prevalent, probably not as much as we think, bc 50 years ago, nobody had heard of it...give or take some in medical field, but everyday ppl, you know....
our foods are covered in pesticides, and our animals are eating chemicals in THEIR food, too.
Several years back, some, I'll just say, 'foreign' guy, came to the states, and basically laughed in our faces, about how fat and lazy the american ppl are becoming. He also made a statement that hit the newspapers, about how, when we all get too out of shape, to defend our country...they'll be back :shock:
I hate to sound, gloom and doom, but this is happening.
Also, our pets that eat, 'ppl food'...they're not living as long either.
I think we all need to take a good look at not only medicine affects, but food too.
