My Health

Did you know that 66% of all American adults are overweight?  You may think, no big deal, everyone gains weight as they get older.  But did you know that either preventing that weight gain to begin with or trying to drop 10-15 pounds and getting more exercise can greatly reduce your risk of chronic diseases such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease?

And this problem is not just for adults anymore.  Children are getting heavier and running into adult-like problems such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol levels and even type 2 diabetes.  This is a new trend for children to have adult health problems, and it’s time for families, friends and neighbors to join together and get healthy.
