It
was rather frightening to read the results of a study by researchers at the
Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. According to Dr. Lin
Yang, “This generation of Americans is the first that will have a shorter life
expectancy than the previous generation, and obesity is one of the biggest
contributors to this shortened life expectancy because it is driving a lot of
chronic health conditions.” Based on the
data evaluated, estimates are that more than 36 million men and nearly 29 million
women in the United States are currently overweight, and about 32 million men
and 36 million women are obese. If you fall into the overweight or obese
category, you might want to get a copy of my latest book “Longevity Lifestyle Matters—Keeping Your Brain, Body, and Weight in
the Game . . .” and stay in the game! It’s worth the effort. Remember: everything starts and ends in your brain and when it comes to staying in the game, mindset is critically important.
