Pictures and Weight-Loss Supplements Danger For The Obese

Hi again!





Don't mind my pictures. I took the one above from my front door, as I was going to work early in the morning a few weeks ago... The one below is of one of my kids... and the fluffy one is "my child", featured in some pages of my site.





I'm just playing around with the new blogger feature that allows you to place pictures directly from your blogspot editing boxes.

By the way... I was reading a very interesting article that claims that studies reveal that some weight-loss supplements can be harmful for obese people. According to the article:

Weight loss supplements containing ephedra and guarana may change cardiovascular and metabolic conditions, which could be harmful to obese people who often have high blood pressure, clogged arteries, or glucose intolerance.... Results showed that repeatedly taking ephedra and guarana increased ephedrine levels in the blood, heart beat rate and blood pressure, and negatively affected glucose and potassium homeostasis.

I guess it goes to show that we ought to be careful with weight-loss supplements, and that the best way to keep slender is through a good diet and exercise.


Yours in health,
