People,do you think someday there will be genetic engineering to let you eat whatever you want and
eat like a dinosaur(eat too much)without gainin weight nor having any health problems?(like diabetes,
colestherol raises,thrigliceredes raises,high blood pressure and being immune to even cancer)?Because there is a post in the timeline saying about an anti-fat drug,but I think it could only avoid a person from getting weight,but he or she could develop another health complications.I want your opinion.Over the next decades,could the nanomachines inside our bodies target harmful molecules or excessive substances derived from excessive calories de and destroy all them?I'd love that,because
I like to eat...

HM, interesting, I am sure there will be something but why eat more than you need. I tink eating less would be a trend in near future, food costs are going up and ppl are looking at being healthier and more active these days.

In the future even eating actual dinosaurs will not be unrealistic. But anyway, you can eat almost anything you like now and survive okay as long as you exercise and get enough vitamins etc.

i think there will be, nanobots that will basically throw out any toxins or excessive sugars/minerals/vitamins/fats from your body when it doesnt need them, im also iimagining that some of this nanobots can create vitamins/minerals from excessive biomaterials coming from the food you take. i mean, there are certain vitamins/biochemicals (not sure about minerals) that are produced by your own body. similarly, nanobots can also kill bad bacteria, harmful viruses, cancer cells, pathogens, poison in your body. at an early stage, it can detect dangerous cancer cells and probably tell you what vitamins/minerals your body is deficient from and it will recommend some food that you need to take.

in short, you can eat junk food whenever you want, (even if its bombarded with pesticides and preservatives), eat as much sugary junk you like, drink alcohol and smoke cigarettes without any unhealthy consequences in the future. the nanobot super-immune system will take care of it.

I would rather need something what provides me with calories, if I'm eating not enough.^^
I tried to gain weight while exercising and to eat about 3000 calories a day. Well, most days it's just impossible for me to eat that much.
I think I need around 1500 to 2000 calories a day, but there are some days I eat less than 1000...
And why is healthy food always so expensive :/
