Recent research now shows that twice as many adults in the United States are obese compared to adults in Europe. About 33 percent of Americans are obese, compared with 17 percent in ten European countries reviewed.
Obesity, as past research has shown, leads to a number of other diseases including cancer, diabetes and others. This also increases our health care costs dramatically and they are directly tied to the ‘obesity factor’.
Our health care expenditures related to obesity range from $100-150 billion per year and the costs are only rising. Why does this continue? The research’s author commented “It is possible that we spend more on health care because we are, indeed, less healthy.”
That’s true, and only there is only one solution: taking responsibility for our own health. Watching what we eat, getting active and keeping a positive outlook on our lives. This is sometimes a challenge in today’s fast paced, every busier world, although it’s a choice. A choice we all make by either doing something about it or just letting things happen and then ending up in the hospital, bankrupt, or possibly an early death.
Life is a wonderful gift, take care of yours.
To your best health!

I was pleasantly surprised to see this interview with Health Magazine clinical nutritionist Samantha Heller on CBS provide wise advise on losing weight. Watch for the new technology that helps you ’see’ or visualize yourself thinner. Personally I think it’s a powerful tool for those looking to release some extra weight.
To your best health!
