Hope This Helps!

What can we do to help our teenager’s have good self esteem these days? It’s so hard at that age with all of the hormones rushing through their bodies. Their bodies are changing, they have such mood swings, they start to worry about their appearance, all of that kind of stuff. So, what can you do? 1, Encourage healthy eating. You don’t want to push too much or too little. Your kids can sit around and eat junk food but you don’t want to deprive them of it either. 2, Encourage exercise. Again- an area to be careful in. 3, If needed, help your teen find the a good acne cream to help prevent break outs. Having a lot of acne can really ruin ones self esteem. 4, Encourage their interests. Don’t push yours onto your child- he or she has a mind of his or her own.

Hope that helps!

Unhealthiest Generation!

In todays world our youth and young people, or our next generation if you will is the unhealthiest generation ever. Most kids today are extremely overweight, mostly because they seat around all day play video games, and eating high in fat foods like chips. I guess that’s really only one part, most don’t do any exercising. I feel that parents play a huge roll in keeping our kids fit. We let them eat crap and watch TV, it’s the easy way. I say try playing a game, or just go outside. There’s always something to do outside. If you live in a wooded area, take a hike, it’s fun. But thats not what will happen, we’ll buy them so called fat burners like thermogenesis. Do fat burners help, don’t know. Well I ever buy any, not a chance, not for me. People do buy them, there still in business right? Anyway, just take your kids for a walk, you’ll also get to have a talk like never before.

Getting Bigger!

I was reading just the other day that America isn’t the only country with a huge number of people overweight. An article I read found that 19 percent of Dutch citizens and 31 percent of Irish citizens do no exercise while their working. Their jobs are basically seating around all day on the phone. This same article found that 50 percent of Greeks and Croatians do zero exercise. And the worst was the French people, 60 percent of them do no exercising. At this rate weight loss pills can’t help, not even the diet pills for women. There is one way to get people to stop eating, get more sleep at night. Most people have a hard time sleeping, and when you’re not sleeping, a lot eat in bed. If you’re having a hard time sleeping talk to your doctor about taking sleeping pill. Anyway, it does seem like the world is getting bigger and no one really cares. I know I try to at lease workout 45 minutes a day. If people would just stop eating so much and do a little exercise they’ll be so much better off.

High Risk!

I was reading about a study that was done on obese women who have given birth, the ones that get the paternity testing done. The study was done by the Britain’s Newcastle University and was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. This study states that women who are obese are more likely to give birth to babies with spina bifida, heart problems, cleft palate and a lot more defects. And on top of all the problems these babies could have the birth by it’s self puts the mother and baby in the high risk of something going wrong.

Being obese isn’t just a women’s problem, it’s everyone’s problem. Americans and other country’s around the world are getting bigger and bigger every day. It seems like we’ve lost our ways. We eat more, we watch TV more and we do less exercising. Everyone should do two things, eat less and just take a walk. You’ll feel much better, I promise.
