Doesn't the fat stored get consumed over a period of time? Fat doesn't stay static does it? If it does get periodically consumed then the P.O.P enters the blood stream no? I think that the theory may have some holes in it.

As my ol Man says "You don't see any fat old people - only thin ones." True, all the old folks I know older than 80 are all thin.

Now don't apply logic to a good headline!

This is a headline like beer will make your wily bigger & two cups of coffee is the minimum dose per day.

Eat less and exercise more is no fun at all. That has to be wrong!

Are we sure it isn't a liposuction clinic putting this out?

I can attest to this, you also will never see a really old person who takes a lot of medications, unless they are all gorked out.

I have a fair number of centanarians I care for, one is like a buck ten, deaf as a post, but she can tell you all about students she taught 75 years ago, and what she had for breakfast day before yesterday. She may be running some BS by me, but it is the same line of BS every time.

A study of 1099 people.. to me that says they have got very little data to work with, probably very localised...
For all intent and purpose, they might have been checking the blood of a bunch of health and sport freaks, who happen to exercise on a covered up chemical dump...
Or who knows, maybe those who did loose weight, lost the weight with some kind of odd diet? pills perhaps?

Maybe they just happened to check a group of people who, yes, did loose weight in the last ten years, but no they weren't healthy in those years..
In case i'm not obvious Crack and Meth will make you loose weight, and data seems to indicat that many who loose weight with C or M, actually do keep it off for ten years, no it ain't healthy, yes it will increase the toxin levels in your bloodstream. Hmm, who'd a thunk that?!


Also, a study of blood , that implies the toxins came from fat that was lost 10 years before... Talk about a wild stretch.
Never mind why one would have to loose the weight, and wait 10 years before it becomes an issue.
You'de think that somebody who lost 30 pounds in the last year, would be worse in the blood then somebody who lost it 10 years ago...

Why would toxins either wait 10 years to emerge, or why would toxins remain in the blood, just circulating for 10 years?? Doesn't blood get filtered?

Why don't they go to a liposuction clinic and start analysing the lipo in it's raw form, rather then checking the blood of those who lost weight.
Or simply start a real research and check the fat and blood of a group of people who haven't lost weight, then monitor as they loose the weight.

That might make the whole research worth mentioning, as it stands, i think it's total BS, i'm not doctor, but i do like a better explanation then the article offered.

I was always told that if you drink lots of water while you're losing weight, that you body would get rid of the bad stuff that had accumulated in your body. Not all of the bad stuff will come out, but dropping extra lbs can't be bad for you...especially if you have fatty liver, gout, arthritis, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, etc...
