| There are many stories in the media about America’s mounting weight problem. You’ve seen the headlines: America’s Fattest Cities – The Obesity Epidemic – Childhood Obesity – “Lifestyle” Diseases.
What really counts is YOUR health and wellness. An important component of this is a healthy weight. Reducing your risk of serious illness in the future is in your hands today and every day. What you eat and how you prepare it DOES determine how you look and how you feel.
Research has shown that when you break down the cell walls of your foods, more nutrients are released into the blood stream. When you receive more nutrients per gram of food ingested, you are satisfied sooner and you eat less by choice, not be depriving yourself. Tricks and fads won’t solve the long term weight control problem. The solution is a healthy, whole food diet that is “heavy” on fresh fruits, vegetables and whole grains…and “light” on the fatty meats, sweets and beverages.
What do we mean by wellness? When you adopt the healthy Vitamix lifestyle, by preparing whole food meals, you naturally control your weight, have greatly increased energy, and feel good about your appearance and all the activities you can enjoy with your family and friends. That’s wellness! |
