The upper class (doctors, lawyers) consumed more food then the working class because they could afford it, yet there was no obesity.

It's not about calories.

It's not about sugar.

It's the PUFAs making us fatigued and sick.

PUFAs are the evolutionary signal for the coming winter and they reduce our metabolic rate which ultimately leads to sickness.

All mammals seek PUFAs when they want to go into hibernation and if you give them a PUFA free diet they will burn through their fat-stores within days.
