Joan, one thing is for sure that up until the '70's people were eating far more natural substances and not this man-interfered with rubbish which is foisted upon us now.

I remain convinced that the "food" which we eat nowadays is responsible for many of our illnesses now. Man made food is not natural - low-fat, low carb, sweeteners, de-caffeinated. Surely it is poison? Margarine..... a man made by-product of petrol! Loads and loads of stuff being made with what they call vegetable oil. Does anyone know what this vegetable oil is? Well is is oil seed rape - in other words, poison.

People used to eat fresh meat, fresh vegatables, full cream milk, fresh fruit etc etc. Not any more. That is all supposed to be bad for us, but I am sorry, I don't believe the scientists.

Also, I think one of the worst things that any government did was to sell off the school playing fields so that children don't get mandatory exercise any more.

IMO Lets get back to basics. Fresh food and exercise, kill the central heating, remove the school runs in Mummy's BMW or whatever and slowly but surely we should all come right again.

Could not agree more
Apart from eating fresh and healthy food... mommy can also walk to the market to buy it and sell the Beemer and get some excercise herself.
Children used to partake in all sorts of sports after school, that seems to be un-pc nowdays as competition is not healthy... what do we see, loads of obese children texting on their mobiles or sitting in front of a computer, playing some or other computer game.
