It is quite likely that this has to do with eating habits. Not meat necessarily, but sugar. Sugar is added to almost anything (eg ketchup is 40% sugar, honey has added sugar) because Westeners like the sweet taste. Asian people more go for a sour taste.
Sugar is very unhealthy for people, however if you are healthy your body is able to cope. If you are a bit sick it gets harder for your body to get well.
Next time you are in the shop try to get some food that has no sugar added. You'll be surprised.
So why not put some normal *fast* ram in a compact flash that acts as a cache? All the downsides of flash are then negated: reading & writing are really fast and there is no 1 million writes limitation. When the cf is removed from the machine, the data in the ram should be copied to the flash, using a small battery (that gets reloaded when in the machine). Simple. Fast. It'll cost only a bit more.

It is all about freedom of choice. A lot of people would like to have it for as much as possible. That is what this whole 'science' thing keeps going.
