this would not explain why there's higher levels of obesity in the USA as opposed to other developed countries where artificial light is just as prevalent. Nor would it explain the exponential rise in obesity over the past 20 years. based on what i've read on the subject, i doubt this is a significant factor in the rise of obesity

It's like a perfect storm

Light exposure in excess of 12 hours daily, tells the human endocrine system that it is late summer, when grains and fruits ripen, and it is time to build up winter fat reserves.

A graph of the spread of electrical lighting in North America precisely matches the rise in sugar and base carbohydrate consumption.

Incidentally, the summer phase also is marked by an increase in overall libido and aggression, we may be able to copulate and reproduce year round, but children born in late spring had the highest chance of surviving their first year.

Basically we're a society of horny, pissed off, sugar junkies, on average.

Making up facts is sweet isn't it?

Are you thinking of gastric banding?

Jared's old news now. Eating less is out and eating more of their $5 foot longs is in.

Hey fatties are you ready for another $5 foot long remix? 'cause that's as much exercise as you're going to get. Chair dancing your food through your pyloric sphincter.

^ I guess losing all that weight got him the wrong kind of attention.
