The Alimentive eats his way to the grave and has at least this much to
say for it: it is more delightful than the pet weaknesses by which the
other types hasten the final curtain.
Diseases He Is Most Susceptible To
Diabetes is more common among this type than any other. Apoplexy comes
next, especially if the fat man is also a florid man with a fast heart
or an inclination to high blood pressure. A sudden breaking down of any
or several of the vital organs is also likely to occur to fat people
earlier than to others. It is the price they pay for their years of
over-eating.
Overtaxed heart, kidneys and liver are inevitable results of too much
food.
