To all those interested in nutrition
In the beginning God covered the earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, with green, yellow and red vegetables
of all kinds so Man and Woman would live long and healthy lives. Then using God's bountiful gifts, Satan created
Dairy Ice Cream and Magnums. And Satan said, 'You want hot fudge with that?
And Man said, 'Yes!' And Woman said,
'I'll have one too with chocolate chips'. And lo' they gained 10 pounds.
And God created the healthy yoghurt that woman might keep the figure that man
found so fair. And Satan brought forth
white flour from the wheat and sugar from the cane and combined them. And
Woman went from size 12 to size 14. So God
said, 'Try my fresh green salad'. And Satan presented Blue Cheese dressing and
garlic croutons on the side. And Man
and Woman
unfastened their belts following the repast.
God then said 'I have sent you healthy vegetables and olive oil in which to
cook them'. And Satan brought forth deep
fried coconut king prawns, butter-dipped lobster chunks and chicken fried
steak, so big it needed its own platter,
and Man's cholesterol went through the roof.
Then God brought forth the potato; naturally low in fat and brimming with
potassium and good nutrition.
Then Satan peeled off the healthy skin and sliced the starchy centre into
chips and deep-fried them in animal fats
adding copious quantities of salt. And Man put on more pounds. God then
brought forth running shoes so that his
Children might lose those extra pounds.
And Satan came forth with a cable TV with remote control so Man would not have
to toil changing the channels. And Man
and Woman laughed and
cried before the flickering light and started wearing stretch jogging suits.
Then God gave lean beef so that Man
might consume fewer calories and still satisfy his appetite. And Satan created
McDonalds and the 99c double
cheeseburger. Then Satan said 'You want fries with that?' and Man replied,
'Yes, and super size 'em'. And Satan said,
'It is good.' And Man and Woman went
into cardiac arrest.
God sighed ......... and created quadruple by-pass surgery.
And then ............. Satan chuckled and created the National Health Service.
THE FINAL WORD ON NUTRITION
After an exhaustive review of the research literature, here's the final word
on nutrition and health.:
1. Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
3. Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.
4. Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks
than us.
5. Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart
attacks than us.
6. The French eat foie-gras, full fat cheese and drink red wine and suffer
fewer heart attacks than us
CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what
kills you.
Send this to at least 14 friends in the next 60 minutes to receive absolutely
nothing back and something good may or
may not happen, but who cares, cause it's funny.
Here endeth the Lesson.
