I am reading this book called The Culprit & The Cure by Steven G, Aldana, PH.D. as part of a wellness program we are doing at work. I really did not think that I would learn anything new or different from what I have already read or heard, but I have and I am only done with the third chapter! Did you know that the number of deaths related to poor nutrition in the United States is equivalent to more than "seven fully loaded 747's"? p.39. Ladies, don't think you are immuned to the leading killer in the US, cardiovascular disease, because according to Dr. Aldana's research women are more more suseptible to cardiovascular disease than men. Wow!! Now, with more women doing the same high stress jobs as men, more women will be dying of heart attacks! Not to be the grim reaper, but we need to get control of our lives and the only way to do that is to eat more vegetables, fruits and grains and exercise more. Maybe we should do 5 minutes of aerobic exercise every hour while we work. If every office did this even every three hours, people would benefit. Start something in your office, you may save lives!
Thanks for taking the time to read this, now go so something aerobic!
