A friend sent this to me ...... Maybe I can even drink  beer with this logic !!!



Health Q's and A's.....

Questions and Answers from the first nutrition expert I've found who
seems to make sense:

From: Dr. Buford Teapotts, MD.

Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life. Is this
true?

A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it...don't
waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up
your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can
extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer?
Take a nap.

Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables?

A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay
and corn. And what are these? Vegetables. So a steak is nothing more
than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system.
Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass
(green leafy vegetable) and a pork chop can give you 100% of your
recommended daily allowance of vegetable slop.

Q: Is beer or wine bad for me?

A: Look, it goes to the earlier point about fruits and vegetables.
As we all know, scientists divide everything in the world into three
categories: animal, mineral, and vegetable.  We all know that beer and
wine are not animal and they are not on the periodic table of elements,
so that only leaves one thing, right? My advice: Have a burger and a
beer and enjoy your liquid vegetables.

Q: How can I calculate my body:fat ratio?

A: Well, if you have a body, and you have body fat, your ratio is one
to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.

Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular
exercise program?

A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain. Good.

Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you?

A: You're not listening. Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil.
In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables
be bad for you?

Q: What's the secret to healthy eating?

A: Thicker gravy.

Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the
middle?

A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You
should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.

Q: Is chocolate bad for me?

A: Are you crazy? HELLO? Cocoa beans...another vegetable!

Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had
about food and diets. Have a cookie...flour is a veggie! One more
thing: When life hands you lemons, ask for a bottle of tequila and
some salt.

Remember when the Docs were saying that coffee was bad for you?  This went on for a few years and finally they came up with scientific evidence that coffee is actually good for you, to a certain extent.  Remember when drinking was bad for you?  There is now scientific evidence that a drink is actually good for your heart.  Chloesterol..the bad kind was supposed to be at a certain figure and now they find that different levels are better.  Well, you can follow all the advice and try to do your very best but other factors come into play: past ancestors medical history, genetics, chemical in food, shelf life of food, refrigeration of food, exposure to oxygen.  The latest craze is good carbs and bad carbs.  Local restaurants have actually come up with the low carb menus.  As for me, all things in moderation, follow Drs. advice, and try to reduce stress in daily life.  I think I need to camp more.  Yeah, I need to get away for a while.  :J   Only the strong surviveeeeee, only the strong surviveeeeee, gotta be strong, all a longggggggg. :!  :D  :U  :C  :!

Oh Birol, Are you sure that you didn't get that from my little bro, Topcat?   It sure sounds like his logic and way of thinking when it comes to food.   By the way, that feature you were talking about does seem like it would be a really fun addition to the board.   But, somehow, I'm not looking for it showing up anytime soon.
