In my family, everyone is skinny but me. We were brought up on the same diet. Everyone but me has high blood pressure. However, most are still average size.
In my greatgrand parents generation relatives ate carbs, fruits grains, Sunday dinners full of rolls and pies. None of them had health problems and they lived long lives into their 80's, 90s, 100s.
My father eats carbs, smokes and drinks...he is 93 and has no health problems other than a hernia. He is skinny.
We all have individual stories and can relate those of others we know. That doesn't make them absolute diet truth.
As I've stated you can't take an individual situation and extrapolate it to the whole population.
