A New DVD Film, Death March from Bataan to Manchuria: Raising a Survivor’s Voice The Pound-Watchers, PROBABLE SOLUTION:   Why do humans crave chocolate, or gorge, or store too much fat?   Researchers are finding the answers to such questions as well as other related biological mysteries.  Researchers are beginning to grasp how our biological fat storing and fat-burning systems work.  Researchers are discovering how we can break the biological systems, so we can live healthier.  Waist size is more important, researchers have discovered, than weight.  Research published in November in the Lancet, concluded that a person's waist measurement is a more accurate predictor of heart attack than the body mass index, or BMI, which is a weight-to-height ratio.   Of the Pound-Watchers, John and Paris lost more pounds than the other members of their group.  John barely lost a half an inch in his waist.  Paris, a diabetic, lost only one quarter of an inch in her waistline.  The blood pressure of both John and Paris climbed instead of reducing.  The blood pressure of the group, except for John and Paris, improved.  The pulse rate of the group greatly improved, except for John and Paris.  Of the groups' body mass index numbers Dr. Lawson measured, the index numbers for John and Paris proved alarming.  Dr. Lawson prescribed a diet with more heart-healthy foods and additional cardiovascular exercises.  After learning more about belly fat and weight-to-height ratios, the group changed their name to: the Waist-Watchers.   Watch video at page bottom: Trans Fat Flap First Business Morning News 1 min 21 sec - Nov 1, 2006 www.firstbusinessx.com Phil Flynn and Tom Hudson discuss KFC's move to eliminate trans fats in its food.
