vitamines make people obese??
i am so tangeled!:(((
Just a note. When people say 'X makes you obese'
You always need to check how they arrived at the DIRECTION of the correlation.
Take for example the recent silliness about diet soft drinks. One study found that people who consumed diet soft drinks were more likely to be obese than those who didn't or those who drank non-diet drinks.
This means that if you picked a diet soft-drink users RANDOMLY you would be more likely to find an obese person than if you selected from the rest of the population. However this doesn't necessarily mean that diet soft-drinks CAUSE obesity.
This information could mean as little as: "Diet soft drink users are more likely to have bad diets". As you could argue that the non-obese people can either deny themselves soda or drink in moderation. Therefore the diet soft-drink users would have a disproportionate number of people who can't control their caloric intake well.
Anyway the point is, causation can be a difficult think to prove. So it pays to be skeptical when people talk about it so simply. :)
Or it could mean that obese people are more likely to drink diet soft drinks?
Back to the original topic - you seem to be saying that your doctor is advising you to drink something, and not just take vitamin tablets? I'm not sure what you're saying here.
