Well, if 'looking better naked' is not your slogan or your goal, there are still plenty of reasons to shed excess pounds. Late last week there was a news report that being overweight is a major contributor to cancer. The report stated that there were 6 types of cancer that were linked to being overweight
1. Colorectum (bowel)
2. Post Menopausal Breast Cancer
3. Pancreas
4. Kidney
5. Endometrium (womb)
6. Esophagus
The study also had a few recommendations
1. Individuals avoid weight gain through their adulthood
2. 30 minutes of moderate daily activity (eventually rising to 60 minutes)
3. Drink water instead of sugary fruit juices
4. Eat more fruits, vegetables and fibre
If you think that our health care system is suffering now, think of the possibilities 10-20 years from today. At of today 1/4 Canadians are overweight...as this trend continues to rise diseases/pathologies such as Type II Diabetes, Cancer, High Blood Pressure and High Cholesterol will skyrocket. It will not take long before our health care system begins to burst at the seams from health issues, that are largely within our control.
All of the recommendations that are listed above are within your control, make a choice to adopt a healthier lifestyle!

Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet. O CresceNet é um provedor de internet discada que remunera seus usuários pelo tempo conectado. Exatamente isso que você leu, estão pagando para você conectar. O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa. Se você quiser linkar o Cresce.Net(www.provedorcrescenet.com) no seu blog eu ficaria agradecido, até mais e sucesso. If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
