"No research has examined the association between obesity and a diet rich in fruits and vegetables in China."

Only thing that needs to be said from this article.

Not sure but this article might be a little bit biased, I've never met a fat person who has a diet rich in vegetables and fruits and works out regularly.

I respect that you're presenting me your side of the story, but you might need to look at both sides and formulate an opinion off that.

my friend actually switched to this diet a month ago and he's lost quite a bit of weight since..Quite to contrary to what this research is presenting..so Like i said I'm a little skeptical of the evidence behind this.

I'm sure it's possible for studies to indicate that some of these people are getting more obese. But I think it's impossible for somebody who is on this diet / works out regularly to become obese.

What they are doing is picking a hand full of people that are obese, and happen to be vegetarian..When in reality, there was just as many healthy vegetarians ..and big vegetable / fruit eaters..that didn't get picked for this study.

Like i said, Theres two sides to a story.



Like i said, you never know..the study obviously wasn't conducted on every person with this diet..and more than likely, ones that were obese were the ones conducted for this study..even when there was probably just as many of them that were very healthy.

In my experience..I don't think I've ever seen an obese vegetarian who works out regularly / gets adequate nutrition.
