pixiechic said: "that's why it is more important now more than ever to use your body. if you don't, our "caveman" bodies will keep storing calories for the famine that is never coming. spending your life being a "watcher" of tv, movies, or sports doesn't help your body or your mind. "move it or lose it""

Henrietta said: "Yes, real shocker. The same info from roughly the 1950s on. Eat less and exercise more."

Heather said: "Just thought I'd pass along this link. They have [URL=http://www.wkyc.com/news/news_fullstory.asp?id=28683]updated Recommended Daily Allowances[/URL] and the food pyramid has changed."

Darren said: "Bout time the government did something. People are fatter than Fatty Arbuckle these days. The next major health crisis is obesity and it's here. They sell 12X pants at Sear's now."

Darren said: "I think a lot of the ideas about nutrition have to be updated. I also think the government has a responsibilty to inform people about their health."
