| 520 | |a Despite the swelling ranks of the overweight, a significant portion of the population seems immune to obesity. Do some people have a natural ability to maintain a thin physique, no matter how much they eat or how little they exercise? This program explores the phenomenon of effortless slimness and its biological causes. Based on a 1967 experiment involving Vermont State Prison inmates, ten volunteers agree to double their normal intake of calories over four weeks-producing intriguing physiological results. The film also investigates genetic factors, evolutionary influences, and learned behavior associated with zero weight gain, as well as the possibility that a virus could be responsible for some obesity cases. | ||
