    There are probably several factors involved, but in my opinion black women tend to have a lower resting metabolic rate compared with white women, which could be a major factor. The July 1999 issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition has an article on the topic. The same is true of black men vs. white men. I would suspect it has (like most race differences) something to do with our different evolutionary histories. Louis Andrews http://www.lrainc.com/swtaboo/
