And also, you know, corn syrup and seed oils, same as everyone else.
I know this is from yesterday but I want to add something I learned in college, how different races process food.
Well, the chemical process is the same, but something that isn't told to kids in health class (and should be) are things their bodies may do that others don't do because they happen to be Native American/Hispanic. We tell kids that "everybody bleeds red" and "race is skin deep", or whatever nonsense we can come up with to plug our ears and live in a fantasy land where "American" can and does literally mean any human being born on our soil, and that it doesn't have some sort of racial component.
"Hispanic" is a wide spectrum of peoples that includes, as you pointed out, very "native" or ethnic people, all the way to straight off the boat Iberian stock. I'm sure many have noticed that the more native looking Hispanics are more prone to weight gain, and their skeletal structure as you pointed out certainly does have an impact, but they also do gain weight
much more than your average White person simply based on their access to foods their ancestors had never even encountered for thousands upon thousands of years. Hispanic food by nature is a cuisine mixed with local ethnic palette and European, namely Mediterranean influences.
(native-ish) Hispanics, Native Americans, and Blacks have a much lower RMR or Resting Metabolic Rate when compared to Whites and Asians. Compounded with foods that aren't native to their bodies, and you have a recipe for increased obesity, heart disease, and cancer. The lower RMR is basically due to Whites and Asians having access to a surplus of food for a lot longer than other races, as well as Whites and Asians having a higher internal body temp. (
see below)
What you're seeing is a major difference between Whites and Blacks. Whites will store brown fat around our internal organs, which is different from white fat. (don't get the brown and white labels mixed here. white fat is essentially the fat you have if you're a fat ass.) Brown fat's entire purpose is to warm our vital organs, something Blacks almost lack entirely and Hispanics exhibit based on however much white admixture they posses.
Now, why am I typing up this diatribe in a thread about politics, it's because this impacts politics deeper than I think we realize.
Blacks, and by extension, Hispanics/Native Americans, have this growing distrust of a society and government they see as, if not entirely White occupied, definitely constructed by Whites. To them, this goes as deep as the food they eat. After all, whitey gives them food stamps to buy this poison that just so happens to make them obese and give them cancer. Reminiscent of the Black "CIA running victory laps" meme response when one of their own are acting niggerish, their own diet and health are systems of oppression the Huwite man uses to keep them down. The racial body temp thing is simply a visual example of differences between races that aren't just about the melanin content of our skin.
The solution to this, in my mind, starts by simply acknowledging race, and not in the DEI sense. Warn kids in public school about their biological limitations. Teach Black kids to avoid certain types of food like rice that will do nothing except blow them up like balloons. Tell Hispanic kids to lay off of the sugar since they can't process it like Caucasians can. This is of course way bigger than just diet. I think most of America's woes with race can be boiled down to this experiment where we force non-Whites to live as Whites, to teach and learn as Whites, and yes, even eat as Whites. It was always going to cause conflict, Hispanics and Blacks will never be able to compete with Whites academically, no amount of money we pump into the problem will fix it.
We're raising coyotes as lapdogs and are getting frustrated with the coyotes instead of realizing we're the stupid ones for trying.
No amount of tax payer money will magically transform non-Whites into behaving and essentially becoming culturally White. It's not only hypothetically retarded, it's biologically impossible.
