Gut bacteria may play a very important role in driving hunger.
Our nation’s sudden increase in obesity may be due to the high numbers of babies born by C-Section and use of antibiotics.
Who knows? Maybe gut bacteria does play a role in the development of homosexuality in women.
Here is the Scientific American article about the research done on skinny and fat mice:
“How Gut Bacteria Help Make Us Fat or Thin”

Ok....I now waiting to read all the snarky remarks about fat people.
By the way, I lost 80 pounds about 10 years ago. So far I have gained about 30 back but I am still within a healthy weight range for my height. That amounts to **less** than an Orio cookie per day. Fighting the **constant** nagging hunger 24/7 over those year has been a walk through hell. I do it for my health and self-respect. Absolutely every social event is struggle and an exercise in brute control of will over hunger.
If there are food issues in heaven, I am leaving. Hell couldn’t be worse.
