The lack of exercise likely has the greatest proportionate cause.”

Be quiet!

This is an area for lawyers NOT for those that actually know something about human health!

Thus this obsession with cholesterol that government has recently developed is so much bunk. If there is an association, it is minimal as the data does not support a great increase in cardiac events over 10 years. This emphasis on low cholesterol has led to a world wide concern and adjustment in diet proportions so that people now receive more carbohydrates and less fat. A higher fat diet is actually better on the body. This coupled with a lack of exercise has led to the massive obesity we now have. The lack of exercise likely has the greatest proportionate cause.
