  1. As stated by Stanford Medical, It is indeed the ONLY reason this country's women live 10 years longer and weigh 42 lbs less than us.

    (And really, it is not related to genetics or some secret exercise and absolutely EVERYTHING about "how" they are eating.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", and not "WHAT"...
