FATDr. Fit's Top Ten Clues that you may be carrying too much fat.
By Dr. Roby D. Mitchell MD who writes a health news letter from 1901 Medi Park #212, Amarillo Texas 79106 Dr. Roby's strategy is what he calls "Preemptive Substitution" : Fill up your stomach with nutrient dense low calorie food before you have a chance to eat high calorie low nutrient food. If you are going to a party, fill up before you go. Once hunger sets in, you are less likely to make a good decision about what you will eat. There is a little organ in the back of your head called an appestat that measures the nutritional content of your blood, and if it is lacking something the appestat tells you to eat: (I'm hungry). If you browse or snack on nutritious food ( baby carrots are great), and keep your water intake high, you will reduce your hunger pangs, and over time when you get hungry, you will head to the salad bar rather than the grease bar. If you haven't got time for your 5 a day raw fruits and vegetables, Dr. Isadore Rosenfield has suggested a viable ALTERNATIVE. Exercise compresses and flexes your tissues, moving fluids along paths set up by your designer. Should your goal be to lose weight, the more you assist those fluids to move through your body, the faster they can carry away the old stored fat. For every inch you gain in girth, the body grows approximately four miles of blood vessels to nourish the extra tissue. Blood which would normally be sent to the head and brain remains in the abdominal cavity, aiding the digestive organs with their increased workload. The heart must work harder due to the increase of fatty tissue. Because of this undue strain, the heart gradually becomes critically weakened and more likely to collapse. The excessive fats and lipids (which along with carbohydrates and proteins, constitute the principal structural material of living cells) in the blood stream obstruct the circulation in the arteries and veins. This obstruction in the circulatory system contributes directly to high blood pressure. Excessive weight brings on mental as well as physical fatigue, and the shift of weight to the lower front of the body puts stress on the spine, often causing lower back pain. So there is not much to recommend being over weight. (There are No fat 90 yr olds) As more information becomes available here on this subject, would you like to be informed ? Yes. See Weight Loss.
