Yes, maybe for some, but I also have a theory on the subject.
I call it the Co - Virus Theory. I say that some over weight people have a
combination of two viruses which alone are nearly benign but together promote a large
weight gain. These viruses came from two different areas in the world and infected
people in the US first,. maybe hundreds of years ago, and are now traveling around
the world. After checking I found an east Indian, I can't remember his name, he is at
Wayne State, who had the theory at an early time but only had one virus under study.
I do believe that co - virus is the key
