    "Finding happiness in a frugal, active lifestyle can spare us a future
    of pills and hypochondria." (in the bottomline section of their paper
    where they list what their study adds to what is currently known in
    this area of nutrition for cardiovascular disease)

    And that is the bottomline.

    (Many astute readers of medical literature probably started suspecting
    a satirical parody from the outset just by reading the word "tastier"
    in the title :-)

    No, the bit I liked was: "Redundant cardiologists could be retrained as
    Polymeal chefs and wine advisers."

    Do you think that you could manage the intricacies of a corkscrew?

    Quoted message said:

    Sidebar note(s):

    (1) One part of being frugal is eating less especially if you are
    overweight.

    I would re-think that statement. Frugal means caution in spending, not
    reduction in food consumption. Eating junk food could be considered
    frugal in that it often costs less than eating well.

    Keep up the good work. (Supporting atheinism and alienating any
    potential Christians among those few that still read your posts.) 😉

  2. "Dr Andrew Chung" is more full of [censored] than a Christmas turkey. I love
    reading his posts, but hope nobody takes them seriously.
