Cardiovascular disease was virtually unheard of before WW2 (before sugar started to be added to everything, and food became 'fake')
People then had a diet with much higher amounts of saturated fat than what we do now, ate far more calories, were much more active, and type II diabetes and heart attacks were virtually unknown.
(Of course far more people died of infectious diseases, trauma, medical neglect and starvation too!)

artificial sweeteners are also interesting "sucralose" or "splenda" is widespread in use as an artificial sweetener, its in the same family as pesticides and about as toxic in the long term, i'm highly reactive to it and have thrown up on it before

Conclusions
It is a serious concern to observe such a high percentage of CV risk factors in a group of apparently healthy young men. The likelihood of multiple CV risk factors is greater among those with high body fatness and low MUFA intake. Intake of MUFA (monounsaturated fatty acids) favorably affects CV risk factors regardless of the source.

IM always skews life expectancy data.
For males, the death rate for circulatory diseases increased from 437 deaths per 100,000 population in 1907 to 1,020 in 1968 (AIHW GRIM Books), before falling to 319 in 2000.
Reduce calories in and increase calories out, problem solved. No other ways out but for the will of the individual.

weight loss is all about will power. Eat less and exercise more for negative caloric balance and its all solved.
