Spice up Your Life

Last week people all over the world wore little pink ribbons as a reminder of those who have or have died from breast cancer. Breast cancer doesn't have to threaten the lives of so many women each year. A study of over 14,000 women showed that active women were 55 percent less likely to die of breast cancer than women who chose not to exercise and stay fit.

The journey to better health and fitness is one that benefits everyone. It doesn't matter how old you are or what kind of shape you are today. You can benefit from a little daily exercise and a healthy diet.

They say that "Variety is the spice of Life." Well, you can enjoy eating a variety of foods every day - grains, vegetables, fruits, beans, lean meats, and low fat dairy products. Drink plenty of fluids, especially water. Dehydration can stop even the finest athlete from playing his or her best game!

Enjoy a variety of healthy pursuits. Join a fall or winter league in your favorite sport! Or try a new sport! Even the simple act of taking a daily walk has helped countless people enjoy life a little more and get in some heart-healthy exercise! The opportunities are nearly endless - enjoy a nice, refreshing walk after dinner. Turn off the TV, save a little money and take the dog or the kids for a long walk. Do you live less than a couple miles from the office or wherever you work? Walk to work or school. Walk to the store instead of driving.

You can look younger and start feeling years younger too! Enjoy life more! Get up and start moving - getting some exercise every day! The more vigorous the better! If you want to lose weight and keep it off - you simply have to burn more calories! No magic mystery pills - no weird science - just good, old fashioned exercise - any way you like!

If you want more energy and a slimmer, sexier body - you can have it all! Medical and health professionals have known the secret formula for years! The quickest way to lose weight - and then keep it off - is with daily exercise.

Eating healthy foods is equally vital to any lasting weight loss program.

However you do it - enjoy the journey. Go for a trek thru the newly fallen snow! Take a long, healthy walk for your heart's sake! And your loved ones! Get some exercise every day and you can greatly reduce your risk of many potential health risks! Spice up your life with a variety of healthy foods and exercise!
