Re: Health News Clips

^^ no it's because of stubborn unparh conspiracy lover mullahs who prevented children from getting polio vaccinations. polio was never eradicated from pakistan, that's why vaccinations were needed.

other news clip: haldi or turmeric powder is beneficial for cardiovascular diseases.

Thanks Khumi.

Also there are few numbers of polio, fewer than the year before, and it is believed that it can be totally eradicated by 2010.

With the obesity rate climbing of the nation, the population rate is climbing double the obesity rate. I forsee USA is going to notice a mass obesity rate in the next five years unless consumers are made aware of their choices and are given alternate adjustments of healthy items in the food industry.

Re: Health News Clips

You’re right about the obesity issue. I guess doctors need to give warnings to parents who feed their children high fat and high sugar diets :emmy:

something pertaining to that, pediatricians have always said that to give infants and children whole or homogenized milk, because they need the fat for the brain, but now seeing the epidemic, they are now recommending that children be given low-fat milk, instead of whole milk. the fat is still needed, but more so for infants and toddlers, than older children.

Yeah. But then you see kids who have a tendency, being given fried chicken and french fries, no fruits and vegetables, sodas and potato chips for snacks. Usually obesity runs in families. At least that's what I have seen.
