Obesity, Diabetes and Energy Metabolism

In this National Institutes of Health program, Marc L. Reitman, chief of the molecular biology and gene regulation section of the National Institute of Diabetes & Digestive & Kidney diseases, reviews current information on obesity and related complications. He also describes how a limited amount of fat can contribute to overall health. At least $30 billion is spent treating obesity-related conditions in the United States every year. While researchers suspect genetic and environmental factors may influence obesity, effective treatment options remain limited. Find out what current research may indicate for the future of obesity and diabetes.

Passive lifestyle coupled with minimal exercise of our bodies and minds will bring ill health and premature death to young America. Thank you for providing this information in a readily accessible forum.

Wow. Just because it isn't set up like the infotainment you see on the Discovery Channel, doesn't mean it's boring.

So eating take out food while playing World of Warcraft is not a good thing?

Heh, maybe that explains how I manage to eat a bunch of pizza and not gain. My school is pretty much downhill, so you have to take some stairs to get most places..

one day he decided to not use elevators for that day, so he start the day walking for 15 minutes to his office and climbed 7 floors to his disk. and then when he return home he climbed 10 floors in where he live. At the evening he checked the sugar and it was reduced a lot. Climbing stairs make your muscles so strong to fight the sugar.

[HugelyBig]

Haha, at first I thought you were about to give some spammy advertisement with that last one. I'll try it! =D

One thing though - how'd he figure that out?

[karlaaa87]

Thank you for your comment. Actually, he has a great secret to reduce the sugar level.. its easy and available to every one. just before any meal. climb stairs for 15 minutes.. . its encorage your muscels to absorb the glocose. Try it. its for all.. you will feel amaizing.
