All food and no play makes prisoners into plump boys

A HIGH-calorie diet combined with life in the cell block — almost around the clock in some cases — is making detainees at Guantanamo Bay fat.

Meals totalling 4,200 calories per day are brought to their cells, well above the 2,000-3,000 calories recommended for weight maintenance by US Government dietary guidelines.

And some inmates are eating everything on the menu.
