health questions and answers. (some warped humour)

HEALTH QUESTION & ANSWER SESSION Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life; is this true? A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that's it... Don't waste them on exercise . Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not make you live longer; that's like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving it faster. Want to live longer? Take a nap. Q: Should I cut down on meat and eat more fruits and vegetables? A: You must grasp logistical efficiencies. What does a cow eat? Hay and corn. And what are these? Vegetables . So a steak is nothing more than an efficient mechanism of delivering vegetables to your system. Need grain? Eat chicken. Beef is also a good source of field grass (green leafy vegetable). And a pork chop can give you 100% of your recommended daily allowance of vegetable products Q: Should I reduce my alcohol intake? A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit.Brandy is distilled wine, that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up! Q: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio? A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one. If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc. Q: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular exercise program? A: Can't think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain...Good! Q: Aren't fried foods bad for you? A: You're not listening.... Foods are fried these days in vegetable oil. In fact, they're permeated in it. How could getting more vegetables be bad for you? Q: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around the middle? A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger. You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach. Q: Is chocolate bad for me? A: Are you crazy? HELLO Cocoa beans! Another vegetable. It's the best feel-good food around!! Q: Is swimming good for your figure? A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me. Q: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle? A: Hey! 'Round' is a shape! !

Don't take life too seriously, you'll never get out of it alive!

I like that diet. LOL

That was good for a laugh, but being an exercise fanatic myself...well I'm sure you know what my respons would be but I'm not going to ruin the humor in this one because it was funny.

:)

Oh YA, it most definitely will catch up one way or another...I use to always be thin, never had to work at it, I could eat what I wanted and as much as I wanted (which I surely did) and never gain an ounce let alone a pound...now I have to work at it, it caught up with me, even having crohns doesn't keep me in shape amazingly with all the yrs of "running" to the can...but I'm glad I exercise regularly, I had no idea the many other benefits from it there are (mentally and emotionally) and so much more.

Not to mention, I ate a ton of junk, a sugar junky if you will, and quite obviously that plays it's own role with health (not just weight)...I know many people still get crohns that have never or hardly ever touched junk food but hey, they havn't figured out all the triggers yet and we all know that CD is strongly linked to bacteria and sugar (along with processed foods) has it's link to bad bacteria.

It's so true that "you are what you eat"...(I learned that the hard way).
