Diets Don't Work

Obesity is rampant in America. The percentage of Americans who are obese has increased from 13% in 1962 to 36% in 2010. Obesity and the effect that this extra poundage has on health is estimated to cost our healthcare system about $117 billion dollars a year. This exceeds the costs associated smoking or excessive drinking. This expense is a primary reason for the ever upward spiral of health costs.

The diet industry feeds on obesity. A fortune is spent on commercials touting the amazing fat melting attributes of this or that diet program. What a waste! It has been shown over and over again that diets do not work. Yes it is possible to lose weight when you diet. What you are not told is that over 90% of people who diet will regain that weight rapidly unless they change their lifestyle.

This is the message we have for you in our book Live Longer Live Healthier. We tell you up front that diets do not work. Then we give you a carefully designed easy to follow program that will coax you into a healthier lifestyle. In the process you will lose a lot of weight and you will keep it off.

We guarantee it!

Is It Safe To Eat BBQ Foods?

What a question to ask. Is it safe to eat BBQ foods. After all it is an American tradition to barbeque. How can it be unsafe?

It turns out that grilling and cooking meats at high temperatures creates cancer-causing compounds called heterocyclic amines.

When the fat from the meat drips on the coals the resulting smoke can coat the meat with other dangerous chemicals. What is the bottom line? You do not need to stop grilling, but you can reduce the risk choosing lean cuts and trimming excess fat. Marinate the meat before you grill it and use lower heat. Avoid charring the meat and reduce the cooking time by precooking in a microwave or oven and finishing on the grill.

Finally consider eating less meat and more vegetarian. This is not only a good way to reduce your cholesterol, but in addition when vegetables are grilled there is little if any formation of harmful compounds. The bottom line is that you can make grilling safer by following a few common sense guidelines.
