A Healthy Diet and regular exercise are two of the most critical factors in maintaining a lean healthy physique, a tireless circulatory system, and as we get a little older the two become a crucial factor in our ability to perform physical functions
Not to mention a proper diet combined with regular exercise is the surest path to a 100 candles on your birthday cake. It’s one path I really hope you are following.
It’s Good to Know....
Obesity is defined as an excess proportion of total body fat. A person is technically considered obese when his or her total weight is 20% or more above their ideal weight.
The most common measure for obesity is the Body Mass Index (BMI). You are considered overweight if your BMI is between 25 and 29.9 , you are considered obese if your BMI is over 30 and if your BMI is 40 points or higher you are classified as “morbidly obese”.
I mean of course you know obesity is bad – even being moderately overweight increases your risk of contracting numerous health concerns.
Your chances of dying from a heart attack or stroke sky rocket as well as developing other serious – even life threatening health issues.
Not to mention the amount of extra poundage you carry around your mid section directly influences your body’s ability to perform physical functions and maintain a healthy functioning immune system.
So most of us try to do what we can to stay in the best shape reasonably possible. And the ones that don’t – well that’s their problem right
Our advice is 'watch it and stay healthy'.
