HEALTH FOR ALL Pleasingly Plump? All Chis talk about the danger of overweight?does i t really maXter? You aren't really fat, jflst- pleasingly plump. Your idea good mating is a hrscious layer cake, not the rabbit food you find "in reducing diets." What are the real facts about overweight? Overweight does shorten your !iff> At the no-o nf a ViooltV,,. man can expect to live to 70, but fat will cut him to about 57. People who are fat in their 20's have a death rate 80 per :ent higher than normal. Imagine carrying around wherever you go, for years to end, a 50 pound bag of cement?even a 20 pound sack. Of course, you'd be putting a strain on your joints and making extra work for your heart. Fat people are more subject to disease than those with normal weight. Their chances o f getting high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, and diabetes are several times greater. The risk in major surgery is greater. . In recent ..years , there, .has been . evidence that it isn't just dairying extra weight that is most dangerous. While a person i s putting on fat, especially . when mere is, a suuuen increase, ne jsi apt to he depositing fatty^ material on the inside of his blood vesselst The heart may not get enough blood and a heart attack will be the result. If you are already overweight, you need net?give up. If the deposits of fat in the blood vessels haven't gone too far, they may disappear. You can definitely increase your life span by los ing weight. There's no easy way. If you have a tendency to overweight, it's a lifetime job keeping off those pounds. You really must want to do it. If you don't want a healthy old agef no one cad make you eat less. That's the on ly answer to excess fat. You an and should eat a wide variety of nutritious foods, hut you nijjst eat less.
