| Summer is on its way and everyone's thinking about beach holidays and skimpy clothing. But don't feel obliged to commit to extreme celebrity diets. They are in no way healthy and very unrealistic for long-term weight control. Instead, try to think positive - it's not what you can't eat, it's all the good foods you can eat. So, instead of limiting food types such as carbohydrates and fat, limit portion sizes. If you are eating whole foods, with plenty of fruits and vegetables, lean protein and healthy, natural fats, you won't feel deprived and give up. Remember, this is not a quick-fix diet, this is a healthy living plan for life, one that will yield results and maximise health. If you need some extra support try the Hoodia Slimming Pills. It's easy, discreet and 100% natural. It will help suppress your appetite and keep you on track for a sexy summer body. | |

| Obesity in the UK |
|
|
Obesity is one of the biggest health concerns in the UK today with nearly one fifth of the adult population reportedly obese. A person is said to be obese if their BMI is 30 or above. Figures today show that 17% of men, and 21% of women in the UK are obese. A person with a BMI of 25 to 29.9 is said to be overweight, with 46% of men, and 32% of women in the UK falling into this category. In 1996, approximately 13% of 8 year olds and 17% of 15 year olds were obese. This increases the chance of adult obesity. These are alarming figures.
Obese women have a higher chance of dying from cancer of the gall bladder, cervix, breast, uterus and ovaries. Men have an increased risk of abdominal obesity due to their shape, which increases the risk of heart disease and type-2 diabetes.
With increasing weight comes a host of other health problems including;
- Type-2 diabetes
- Increase in cholesterol levels
- Increase in blood pressure
- Premature death
- Heart disease
- Stroke
