Hudson, NH -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/8/2006 -- Being over weight places you at risk for having high cholesterol, elevated triglycerides and high blood pressure, this all can lead to heart disease. Obesity can also lead to glucose intolerance which is the precursor for type II Diabetes.
We all have been told over and over that the key to weight loss is Good Nutrition and Exercise; there really is no other substitute. So, why then are we still having an epidemic? One reason may be the confusion about what is considered good nutrition? There are so many mixed messages. A good place to start would be to eat 5 to 6 small well balanced meals a day without all the additives and preservatives, and to get 30 to 60 minutes of exercise 5 to 6 days a week, but who has time?
Most Americans are too busy to take the time to cook whole foods that are not processed and/or loaded with added chemical preservatives, salt, sugar, and saturated fat (animal fat found in meat and abundant in red meat and whole milk dairy products), or even worse trans fats (hydrogenated vegetable fat found in hard margarines, vegetable shortenings, prepared baked goods and used in many restaurants to fry foods in). Instead they head to their grocers freezer and grab a frozen meal that is loaded with everything they need to avoid or they head out to a fast food restaurant which is just as bad.
