Solution to the Baby Boomer Dilemma |
| 4/2/2009 8:57:39 PM |
As baby boomers begin to retire we have a problem on our hands. They have not taken care of themselves nor have they taught their children good nutritional values. By the 2010 the health and wellness industry will reach the multi trillion dollar level.
I’m sure you know someone that has been affected by heart disease, which accounts for more than 7.2 million deaths a year. 194 million people suffer from diabetes and the figure is expected to rise to 300 million by 2025. Obesity has reached a global epidemic, with more than 1 billion adults overweight and at least 300 million of them clinically obese. 8.6 million people die of cancer annually. 25 million North Americans suffer from osteoporosis. More than 165 million people have some form of arthritis. An estimated 29 million suffer from dementia and 5.5 million die from stroke every year.
More shocking statistics:
1. every 26 seconds someone suffers from a coronary event.
2. 71 million Americans have one or more types of cardiovascular disease.
3. Every two minutes another woman is diagnosed with breast cancer.
4. 1 in 2 women and 1 in 4 men over 50 will have some sort of bone break or fracture related to osteoporosis.
5. Every minute someone in the United States dies of a coronary event.
6. The estimated direct and indirect costs of cardiovascular disease this year in the United States is 403.1 billion dollars.
The sad truth is these diseases are almost completely preventable with proper diet and exercise. Give two percent of your day, that's 30 minutes and go for a walk. Eat a balanced diet and supplement your diet. Leaving your health to chance is like playing Russian Roulette with your life.
I know we live busy lives, but in order to truly live we must take care of our bodies.
Studies prove that eating a diet high in refined carbohydrates and unhealthy fats contributes to heart disease, diabetes, weight gain and premature aging.If your work conditions and busy lifestyle prevent you from getting proper daily nutrition from your diet, you still have hope with nutritional supplements.
Our bodies need the proper nutrients on a daily basis for optimal health. When our diets don’t meet the requirements, nutritional supplements can fill in the gap.
You won’t have overnight success but we must strive to achieve optimal health. True health is more than a state of being. It is a lifestyle that is achieved through good daily habits. To sustain lifelong health, you need good nutrition and exercise. These practices work together to keep you looking and feeling you best and are not things to be done once a week or a few months a year, but must be done daily.
