>...obese people seeing as much of the Islamic world...

Thanks for cutting of a very important part of my actual statement to paint me as some ignorant moron.

Also, 41 million are not obese. Now your articulating another data point to suit your narrative. I'm talking in the grand scheme. My argument was never "hur dur there aren't obese people in the Islamic world!"

The US alone has 30-45%[0] obesity among 300 million meaning. The Islamic world has 1.8 billion. Assuming we just use the same statistic on the high end of the American side for the three countries you named, that is still only 18 million. The US has 96 million on the low end. If you factor what I actually said, the Islamic world, it's again, an even smaller percentage than the 1.25% I quoted earlier.

There wasn't really a good place to cut the quote, so I trusted people to follow the thread. I have no intent to paint you as anything and don't think a reasonable reader would be convinced you're ignorant from what I replied with.

I have no real narrative to speak of in this conversation either, my only intent was to point out why I thought the great-grand-parent post had included those data points.

People binge on sugary drinks when they break the fast then stay up all night eating meat and rice. This doesn't do good things for insulin resistance.
