4 healthy choices to change your life - Los Angeles Times




From the Portal:

This is one of a number of studies now saying the same thing - if you live a good healthy life, then your chances of staying healthy are good. If you don't, then there will be consequences later on in life.

So, recently, I started on a plan of diet and exercise. I do not smoke and my Body Mass Index is way too high. I have now lost about four pounds in weight but more importantly I feel much better. I try to do 10000 steps a day and or engage in some kind of physical activity. I do not eat meat at all and my intake of fruit and vegetables is very good.

Most importantly, I watch my sugar intake closely. It is the sugar in your diet that is the one thing which will put on those extra pounds. So, sweets, cakes and fizzy drinks are out. To be honest, I do not need them and I do not miss them. But there are so many other food products especially processed foods that are loaded with artificial sugar such as Fructose and in particular High Fructose Corn Syrup, which has been added to many food products since the 1960's.

It is this practice alone that has lead to a massive rise in obesity, heart attacks, stroke and most importantly Diabetes, the silent killer.

The silent killer - the reason I call it that is because most people don't even know they have some form of diabetes until it is too late. Diabetes is one of the major factors in all of the major chronic diseases that afflict our society. So, please take some time to think about your lifestyle and see how you can improve it.
