Why are Somalis so unhealthy

Before someone comes at Me for talking out my ass scientific studies have confirmed both US and UK Somalis rarely eat fruits and subsist on a diet of Pasta, Rice, and Meat. U.S. Somalis have a high risk of Diabetes and cardiovascular diseases as well as obesity (Side note even though Somalis have a high risk for these diseases their risk factor is still lower than the majority of Americans).

Btw it’s mostly women who drive this most Somali men have a slightly higher rate of high blood sugar but lower rates of obesity while Somali Women have both high blood sugar and obesity more than the average Finn

No exercise + too much carbs in our diets, which wasn’t the case traditionally. This is a global trend sxb.


It boils down to being uneducated about food and benefits of exercise. Fortunately exercise and healthy food culture have become much more common among us, I expect shit to change significantly in 5 years time.

Its our diet and we need to change honestly it's one of the most unhealthy do you wonder why our parents always have
Diabetes, Cholesterol, blood pressure, heart problems, Vitamin Defiency, Allergies and many more
 
The older-gen are too hard headed. This is why men have wide juicy hips and women are built like tanks.

If I showed my hooyo I'd eat a full chicken breast, sweet potato and asparagus with a berry smoothie after a lift she'll have a heart attack because there isn't a half pound of pasta too go with it .

It's recommended we eat like 40% carbs somali eat >80% . :dead:

I made a similar thread like this the other day
 
Carbs and PUFA oils are killing us, no wonder we got bidaar issues, diabetes, the women having chronic anemia, heart attacks etc.

Somalis need to consume more fruits & vegs for blood circulation, carbs and proteins & fats while required clogs your body/lymphatic system up.

Eat & drink your fruits.

Somalis do better with high fat and protein, I can personally attest to that, in the west this might be harder, we should approach food like the SEA small portion of rice with lots of veggies and meat.

Speak for yourself we always had fruit in the house. Munching on grapes, oranges, pears ect. Also with dates and raisins
 
Go back home and you will regularly see a skinny Farax eating an entire plate of pasta washed down with hot black tea.

I can just see the malnutrition most likely caused by gluten issues followed by consumption of hot caffeinated products straight after a meal.

Eating a meal does not mean that you have actually nourished your body in any way most of the time when you eat like this.
