Answers:
people in the olden days worked like dogs from sun up to sun down and did not sit on their cans half the day , they worked the calories off !. Things are not as natural as they used to be either , all the preservatives may be an issue !. Tell your great nan she rocks and her generation has paved the way for us !Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you ask me it ain't the bread and stuff it is all that added crap in food and all that quick food that people eat back then and even when i was little every thing was ate fresh now days stuff you buy will last forever and you have to ask yourself all that stuff that they put in there to make it last on the shelves may make it last longer in your body!. and back then people did alot more they did not have dish washers wash machines like they have now they also had to do alot of farm work!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yeah the amount people eat now is a lot more than then!. we also have more things such as playstations which hinder our physical movement, so as you can obviously see, the world is getting fatter!! However, when people say limit these certain things it basically means limit them to a normal amount!. i!.e!. not 5 slices of bread a day!Www@Answer-Health@Com

You make an excellent point!. In addition to the other answers, people decades ago didn't have 3 cars in the garage and 2 in the driveway!. As far as children were concerned, parents didn't have to worry about them playing outside because it was more safe than it is now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

People severely overeat now!. We are less active!. And there are more preservatives in things!. I think now, people tend to eat out more and eat more processed foods rather than home cooked!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

its becasue people didnt have all the fast foods and other sweet treats!.!.!.they had ONLY that stuff!.!.!.but we eat that too BUT we also eat mcdonalds and convenience foods also which will give us more calories then they hadWww@Answer-Health@Com

It wasn't processed food!. It was natural!.

And they worked a LOT harder (which burned calories) then we do today!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

people were more concious then it seems like, today nobody really cares as much
