Poor
Nutrition Proven To Decrease Lifespan
CENTENNIAL, Colo., February 18, 2002 - According to a study
performed by the American Cancer Society (and published in the
New England Journal of Medicine) elevated body-mass (which primarily
comes from poor nutrition and lack of exercise) is directly
related to shorter life spans. Although most people are aware
that poor nutrition can lead to obesity and life threatening
diseases, many don't take the steps they should to improve their
diets. The reasons primarily stated are lack of time and a distaste
for 'diet food'. These two obstacles have recently been overcome.
Those
with busy schedules and hectic lifestyles often neglect their
nutrition stating that there isn't time to find recipes, shop
for ingredients and prepare healthy meals. Others complain that
nutritious recipes lack in taste or consistency.
Services
such as Health-E-Meals (www.health-e-meals.com) now offer quick
and healthy recipes, snacks, fitness tips, motivational hints,
and recommended Web links. Created by Erin Rogers, a busy work-at-home
mom with two children, this site is devoted to providing help
for those on the go who still want to eat nutritiously.
Recipes
come with nutritional information, time-saving tips and side
dish suggestions. A 'Throw-Together' feature offers insights
on how to pick up a few ingredients at the grocery store and
quickly prepare a healthy meal with minimal preparation work
or cooking.
The
Health-E-Meals Weekly newsletter makes quality nutrition accessible
to those on the go by offering simple solutions for delicious
and healthy foods. By having this information delivered to them
on a regular basis, consumers are better able to select foods
that benefit the body, taste good and promote a longer lifespan.
