Do more people suffer from over-eating or from malnutrition?

Let's try and keep a little perspective on the problem comrades and not get
carried away with our own disorders.

Agreed. Overeating and malnutrition interpenetrate one another. Over eating
is a craving for nutrition with its own process.

Several years ago I had run down the data on the subject - being located and
sent to me by my wife, on the basis of United Nation reports. The concept was
"healthy life expectancy" as opposed to simple longevity.

I believe I would actually pose the question as over eating or over
consumption versus starvation. Even this is not accruate enough because the 
overeating
is a metablic process of nutrient carving.

At any rate the question/issue requires reformulation on the basis of real
science. The basis of my approach was inherited from Professor Arnold Ehert and
his writing in the early 1920s. His "Mucusless Diet Healing System" is to the
health of man/women what Marx "Capital" is to the working class and Political
Economy.

What is needed is folks who have studied this question on another basis of
science.
