its to do with the low portion sizes that they eat.
No, that is what has to do with the fact that they're all friggin tiny. Because their race went through thousands of year of malnutrition and adapted to that reality.
But their low obesity rates has nothing to do with genetics
Metabolic rates are heavily influenced by genetics.
Seriously why is it so hard for people to admit that eating too much is bad?
No one has a problem with admitting that.
We have a problem with you ignoring the content of the food.
I don't ignore the content of the food. I simply point out that Asian Americans live in the same country and eat the same food as other Americans and yet have much lower rates of obesity than other races in America. No i don't accept the "its just their genetics" arguement. i believe they simply eat less.
Going through thousands of years of malnutrition doesn't make you less likely to being obese, in fact its more likely to make you more prone to being obese easily because the body would be trained to retain fat in order to keep going longer for when there's no food around.
Yes it does. They evolved to be smaller, more compact, smaller breasts, weaker bones, everything.
That's why they are little. That's why your average Korean man is the size of a child. Because their entire race subsisted on about 900 calories a day for three millennia.
For that matter, why do they all have brown eyes and straight black hair? What's up with that? Clearly it's because Americans eat too much or smth.
They have brown and black hair because of genetics.
But their low obesity rates has nothing to do with genetics , its to do with the smaller portion sizes that they eat.

Yes, you have been doing nothing but that for both threads.
Uh huh.
They don't, it's that simple. Your average Asian family eats much, much more homecooked meals than the rest of the nation on the whole.
Meaning they aren't consuming nearly as much overprocessed poison.
This is you ignoring the content of the food again.
