in all seriousness, it's really hard to peg down what is and isn't viable. in this day and age with all the preservatives and chemicals and medications people take, it's incredibly hard to figure out what those things all mixed together can do to a body. that's not even taking into consideration what fifteen different body types might be like with the same combinations. i mean, we're still waffling back and forth and changing our minds on the basic things like what sort of fats are good for you. eggs are bad. no, now they're good. no, now only egg whites are good. no, they're a great source of this and that. our science is constantly evolving and changing and that also happens to carry over into what it discovers and how that affects a body.

add in things like birth control, a mix of other medications, genetic conditions and it becomes next to impossible to figure out what all of those actually can do to a person. we have a lot of conditions in this day and age that weren't present a hundred years ago, or weren't as prevalent. we're doing things to our bodies and we don't really know the long-term effects. there just isn't money in researching for 'fatties', because doctors get more money from people with conditions that stress their bodies than not.
