Dieting has been around for 1000s of years, although not in
any complex way like we see all around us
now. It wasn’t very common because people who were overweight were not very
common. Apart from rich traders, well paid city workers and
the aristocracy, these folk were often fat in body as well
as their bank balance. So being fat was not a problem for
most of the so called commoners, maybe they would have wished it was, as an
outward sign of prosperity and plenty.
The
diets that were around were not there to make us look
better, they were only used to trim a person down if their
weight was interfering with say horse riding or even getting
about. Even a diet would mean an excessive intake of food
with several large game pies, chicken and gallons of wine,
these rich folk new how to eat! |
|
When
common folk started to earn more money so they could afford
more food, generations of their ancestors had been starving
and now they could eat like a nobleman. You really couldn't
blame them from stuffing their faces and enjoying the rich,
fatty, sugary food that had been only a dream away. |
|
Another problem is that the human body is
particularly well suited to putting on the pounds. Fatty and
sugary foods are digested enthusiastically and the excess
energy given is stored by the body for a time when such
riches may not be an option. This is after all, a sensible
measure to take by a bodily system that has evolved over
millions of years, during which time a truly enormous number
of people must have starved to death. |
|
As a defensive measure against starvation, our
bodies know that getting fat is a good thing, and
biologically, the modern man and woman is no different from
our pre history and ancient history ancestors. A couple of
centuries of freely accessible food for all are nothing
compared to the survival struggle it has endured for so
long. The human body has not had enough time to adjust to
modern realities (realities in developed countries, at
least) and that may turn out to be a good thing if one of
those lurking asteroids hits us sometime! Let us not be
arrogantly presumptuous that all will be well forever in the
times ahead, our bodies certainly are not and hence the
continuing likening for the flab. |
|
All very well, but civilization destroyed by asteroids is
only a faintly possible threat. Rising cholesterol, blood
pressure, cancers, heart disease and other not too
delightful diseases and conditions associated with obesity
are here today. |
