Skinny Fat - Marc Nelson

Send us Fan MailMarc talks about his lifelong struggle with skinny fat, while doctors see him as fit. We talk about body image and the role media plays in it. **********I was born in a body that genetically lacked muscles/muscle mass, almost everywhere. Genetically, is common in my family. Even though I was always a very active kid, regularly playing soccer & tennis, walking to & swimming at the local pool, etc. at around age 8 I began to notice the skinny fat all over my body where there should be muscle/mass. As puberty hit, the fat only got worse.Because I was within my safe BMI, the doctors paid no attention. And because obesity is common in our family, my parents did not give it a second thought. After failing to find any help with the arbitrary, subjective, baseless, unscientifically debunked body types including the somatypes/three body types - endomorph, ectomorph, mesomorph - and hormone body types, Kibbe body types, triangle body types, 10 body types, etc., I began the Body Type Science research.I am not alone. The obesity epidemic is directly related to genetics & Body Type Science, not just eating too much & laziness. My soul's journey in my Body Type Four to age 47 has been riddled with chronic & acute hardships including bullying, obesity, depression (enteric brain), digestive/gut imbalance, serious back pain, isolation/loneliness, & lack of health, in general, as well as family & doctors hearing only what they want to hear regardless of the evidence & facts at hand. All of which have been overcome with hard work, determination, & science (the acquisition of true knowledge).As the lead scientific researcher at Fellow One Research, I have pioneered Body Type Science (The Four Body Types) since 2003 - the ONLY scientific body type in existence.Website: https://www.fellowone.com/*******If you would like to contact the show about being a guest please email us at [email protected] us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Twitter: https://twitter.com/DaunaD1Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomHave a question or want to be a guest on the podcast email: [email protected] see upcoming guests click here: https://www.dmneedom.com/better-topodcastSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSound Design and production by Rich Zei at Third Ear Audio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thirdearaudioproductionsBuzzsprout: Affiliate link https://www.buzzsprout.com/?referrer_id=1832259©2022 Better To...Podcast with D.
