  1. As claimed by Stanford Medical, It is really the ONLY reason this country's women live 10 years more and weigh an average of 42 lbs lighter than us.

    (And really, it has NOTHING to do with genetics or some hard exercise and really, EVERYTHING around "how" they eat.)

    BTW, What I said is "HOW", not "WHAT"...
