I was delighted with both participation and feedback we received from our first DocTalk Web seminars . If you missed the first session or you want to review the information you heard, you can view the recorded version anytime you want by following this link:
Key areas of future interest which we will cover in much more depth in subsequent DocTalks are nutrition, fitness and exerise, weight loss, medication use and misuse and finding and interacting with your physician(s) to improve your care and your health. If the presentation of the "Top 10" seemed skewed to the behaviors which YOU control and which YOU can undertake to improve your and your family's health and reduce your health care costs . . well, its what the EVIDENCE shows. Its not Doctor Mike's opinion. Take a peak at Dr Bob's book and share it with your loved ones.
Final quiz Lumenos consumers: What proportion of Americans can answer "yes" to all of the following 4 questions:
1) I am a nonsmoker
2) I'm within 5 pounds of my ideal body weight
3) I eat a balanced diet with 5 portions of fruits and vegetables a day.
4) I am physically active for 30 minutes most days of the week.
50% - nope. How about 25% . . incorrect. What about say, 10% . . closer but still way off. 3%, yes 3 of 100 of us can say yes to these 4 questions.
