Diet: Carbohydrates: What You must know

This scares me to death, every day you walk down the street it is
becoming more and more apparent that the average person is becoming
larger and this trend has escalated over recent years. Why are they
getting fatter? Here are some reasons...

· Less incidental activity
· Automated and computerized lifestyle
· Longer working hours and less leisure
· Increased consumption of
processed foods
· Our food servings are larger
than ever

domestic embarrassment to an official disease. The American Heart
Association has announced obesity is a major risk for heart disease.
