This is very interesting .
I heard you at MDRT 2009, Indiana.You addressed the boxes in the brain.
Is there anyway I can become your agent for your product in Trinidad? I own an Inspirational book store. Because I have an extensive contactbase as a Mdrt life agent I can market Mindwork effectively.
Please contact me to discuss how we can make this proposal work.

The correlation between less brain mass and obsity is interesting but the material here alludes to causation rather than correlation. I would be rather careful of implying causation. A more likely mechanism of action is that acute stress may lead to both obesity and brain damage.

Does your group have information on RADS? Do you have meds for it? I know a child that is being treated by a professional, but this person is treating the case like ADHD. This person says the actions are the same, and the treatments are the same. We are very confussed. In some way, the child is doing better. But the child continues to have poor social skills, and actions that are below the child’s age level.

Would also like to know relation of activity, weight and brain. I believe I read that active overweight folks had better heart health than inactive “normal” weight folks.

And if this study was of 70-yr-olds, how did years of overweightness relate to amount of tissue lost?

Also, can people who were once obese get the brain tissue back.
