I wonder though. Don't we all know people who were lean and died young?

(Admittedly, anecdotal evidence, not very scientific). One wonders if it's

the QUALITY of the food, and not the leaness (or perhaps both). Garbage in,

garbage out.

Yes and the Okinawans are not especially skinny. They're short in stature

but don't look like concentration camp survivors by any means. They have

flesh on them and have a healthy, not a hungry look.
