Weight & Disease - the Ethnic Equation

For years, health experts have been studying the diet of the French who consume rich creams, fatty cheeses, and luscious desserts yet the French have a low incident of heart disease.

The 'Wine Equation' was brought into the picture including more intense studies to see if there was a connection in wine consumption and heart disease.

But after all these studies, and all these analysis, does wine really cut heart disease risks? Or is the low risk of heart disease inherent in the French people? Could it be a simple case of ethnicity?

There is a long list of disease and health issues that appear to be more brutal to some ethnic groups than others. Blacks are more susceptible to sickle cell anemia than other ethnic groups.

Some ethnic groups tend to accumulate more body fat than others, while some ethnic groups remain razor-thin on the whole - that's 'whole' with a 'w'.

There are a lot of questions that have yet to be answered, and we may never know all the right answers. One thing is for certain in regards to what a person weighs and the condition of the body. Pain generally retards the desire to eat, thus effecting weight.
