How do you know for sure that air pollution causes obesity? Dr. Perera stated that there is a correlation between air pollutants and childhood obesity. She tracked 720 mother-child pairs. Then she said "there is a tendency for some children to become more obese." It doesn't sound very definite to say "there is a tendency". Nothing was said about the study having a control group for comparison purposes.

If you want to maintain a civil discussion, I think it's counterproductive to keep using the word preaching. It's offensive. Suppose I took the opposite point of view that you are preaching about the evils of air pollution?

If you go back and read your thousands of threads and posts regarding diet, you will realize that you do, in fact, preach. Most of what you say pretty much indicates "my way or the highway" in regard to the thinking of anyone else.

Studies are just that. Nothing is ever definite in a study. A doctor or other expert has conducted one and tells what the results have shown. So why are you crucifying CFrance for bringing up this "study," simply food for thought and as a piece of information on this forum???
