Work is murder

Americans actually burn more calories than they did 50 years ago. The reason is not because we exercise more, it's simply because we have bigger bodies and therefore a higher energy requirement for weight maintenance.

We've reached a new equilibrium where body size, energy intake and energy expenditure are all increased.

Thanks Stephan

As I said I think a lot of that is a bit overblown and exaggerated. I also have a problem with its promotion of antibacterials. I think we are far too casual about their impact on our microbiome.
