More likely you're skinny because your body uses insulin to burn the
sugar efficiently. However, if you had any form of insulin
resistance, as a huge number of people do, that much Mountain Dew
would put the pounds on you.

Right, but that's not really what I was talking about... The effect of
what goes in varries from one substance to the next, and so it's
logical to assume that one substance will cause more weight than
another when every other variable (excercise and amount of substance

There is no magic pill. Moderation is key, just like in everything
else in life.
There is a correlation between what comes in (eating) and what goes
out (exercise). If they are out of balance you get too fat or too
skinny. Metabolism and a few other factors may play a role also, but
it's still

It really doesn't have to be all that overt. All the advertising has to do

I guess I have more faith in people's ability to make choices on their
