I’m not allowed to make any claims… but could stopping overeating literally save your life? Well…more than 50,000,000 Americans go on a diet each year (according to Colorado State University Extension) but only 5% manage to keep their weight off. And many not only regain their weight but end up heavier than before 🙁
According to the World Health Organization 67.9% of adults are overweight in the United States alone. That’s two out of three people! And, at the time I last researched this topic:
* Worldwide obesity since 1975 has TRIPLED! More than 1.9 Billion adults are overweight and 650 million obese!* Diabetes has increased by 80.8%! Diabetic adults live with double the risk of heart attack and stroke—AND—a seriously increased risk of blindness and kidney failure. Yet “simple lifestyle measures have shown to be effective in preventing or delaying the onset of type 2 diabetes” – most notably to “achieve and maintain a healthy body weight,” “eat a healthy diet,” and “be physically active.”* Cardiovascular disease is responsible for 31% of global deaths! But “most cardiovascular disease can be prevented by addressing behavioral risk factors—primarily “unhealthy diet, obesity, and lack of exercise!”* 30% to 50% of cancers can be prevented, and dietary modification is an important approach to cancer control. “There is a link between overweight and obesity to many types of cancer such as esophagus, colorectum, breast, endometrium and kidney […] Regular physical activity and the maintenance of a healthy body weight, along with a healthy diet, considerably reduce cancer risk”
So could stopping overeating literally save your life? I’ll leave it to you to decide! HIT PLAY TO LISTEN NOW TO AN INTERVIEW WITH A WOMAN WHO’S LIFE MAY HAVE BEEN SAVED. (Transcript)
