If eating too much food is bad why do Olympic athletes eat huge amounts of food?
DavidCary
Because they burn an unusually high amounts of calories in training. If you did the same you could eat a lot too. Additional answer: It is bad to eat more calories than you burn. Olympic athletes do not eat more calories than they burn. An elderly sedentary person may only burn 1,000 calories a day. A football player may burn 5,000 calories a day. While the elderly person would become extremely fat on a diet of 3,000 calories a day, the football player would not be able to function. Too much food is a relative term depending on how active a person is. Are you in a nursing home? Do you have a desk job? Do you run marathons? When are you swimming the English channel?
