There is no question the modern lifestyle may be
killing us. I recently saw a report that stated less
than 3% of Amish women are overweight compared with an
over 50% obesity rate in the general US population --
despite an Amish diet heavy in fat and other goodies.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figuire that
simple consistent physical activity ie. - manual
labor,walking,playing frisbee, catch, or even flying a
kite can go far in keeping you fit and keeping off the
pounds.Reinhatr's Urban Ranger idea as well as shovel
gloveboth address this issue.
