# 3 is absolutely correct!
Change those candies for fresh fruit and the cakes for veggies.
Get off your **** and walk up the steps at work.
Walk more, drive less!

Just look at what they serve at a kiddush in your typical Brooklyn Shtibul every Shabbos, or stroll down the “nosh aisle” in your kosher supermarket, and you won’t need any studies to know why we have this problem.

I am not shocked as to the numbers of people coming down with diabetes. Do people realize how much junk food people eat on a daily basis?

Cancer and diabetes is at an all time high especially in the frum community. The stats are shicking and alarming and very scary.

People drink sodas for breakfast , lunch and dinner. Proccessed foods is a big thing even at simchas. People are overweight and not eating and sleeping right. The cereals people eat for breakfast are loaded with junk and more junk.

Until we eat healthier and sleep better we will only continue to get sicker and sicker. Nebach.

We can control this plague the question is do people have the will to do it or do people just want to continue to complain about their health and say nebach all day long.

Daven well, eat healthier drink lots of water instead of the sodas and caffienated garbage and foods loaded with msg and sleep well!

Alan- I know your specialty or Profession is Weight and Exercise Training, but do you work with your clients suggesting food choices, as well as vitamin and herbal suplementing? Exercise is important but one also needs to maintain a healthy guf. Lastly do you work with your clients on their personal attitude? This may also help motivate and help them indirectly to achieve the success with their program.
