My friend said that whites generally have more cancer, and weaker immune systems, but I countered him with diseases that are common within the blk community, such as diabetes, obesity and sickle cell anemia...Please, keep it to whites and black within the States...such as no "what about AIDs in Africa"
Please, no racist answers

LesbiANA -- you're the dumb one, obviously I mean relative to the population of each race.

I agree with Hildulf the only other thing I would add is that whites tend to have more protection against AIDS while Africans have the least and Black Americans lie in the middle. Also white Europeans tend to not be able to get Mad Cow disease because their ancestors were cannibals

I agree wholeheartedly ! All races may be smart, this is no longer "performing white". so which you have been clever? that would not make you to any extent further powerful than those different little ones, and that they at the instant are not cooler than you. Few human beings have reported that to my face. it is what they did each and every time I spoke in college:They asked me if i grew to become into mixed ! yet in straight forward terms when I reported some thing. i do no longer use alot of slang. what's incorrect with being a nerd? :) yet i could say that intelligence isn't measured by using PHD's! no longer anybody needs or desires one. Be the greater powerful lady and forget approximately those human beings. yet performing conceited and saying how clever you're, in basic terms isn't...clever.

The immune systems of all people are getting somewhat weaker... this is due to vaccinations and anti-bacterial soaps gaining such prevalence.
If our immune systems don't get a workout, they aren't going to flourish and grow.
As for diseases based on race... the only thing I can think of that's racially oriented is sickle-cell anemia.

I think that white women have the largest number in being diagnosed with breast cancer. But yeah black people have diabetes and sickle cell. Alot of different races have obesity and I personally don't consider that a disease.

hmmm, i think it should be divided by all ethnic groups, not just white or black. Jewish decendents have a type of sickle cell and a few other things i can't really think of right now.
In response to " demond van de luideverliezer", diabetes is NOT due to bad diet for everyone. It is very hereditary. For example, my grandfather, uncle, aunt and my dad have all developed diabetes and they are all very thin, healthy, lifestyle-conscious people. So there.

HIV/AIDS is not about race but perhaps the plight of Africans is ignored because of racism. Poverty is the main cause along with lack of quality health care, tribal beliefs, lack of sex education, no condoms and issues with the status of women and children. It has nothing to do with race.
Diabetes is caused by diet. I don't tell people to live off fried chicken and french fries, should probably cut down on my own consumption. I went out and bought whole-grain coated vegetable grain-fed, trans-fat free organic chicken nuggets. There are baked fries available.

It is true that whites tend to have more immune system diseases than blacks and most is to do with hygene. White richer countries have more hygene and unfortunatly that is not always a good thing as it has been medically proven lately. Also whites use far more anti-biotics than blacks and build up an immunity to them.

Each race has their own share of diseases they are more vulnerable to. This is scientific fact, and highlights that there are more differences between races than our modern PC culture will allow our scientists to explore.

People are sick all the time because look at what Americans eat...fast food, and chemicals food products in the stores. I for one changed my diet to organic as much as possible.
