'Step Up' dietary campaign outlines healthy eating habits
The Coloradoan, CO -
Find your balance between food and physical activity. Being healthier isn't just about eating right. It's also about engaging in physical activity. Regular physical activity can help you feel better and control your body weight. Recognizing that Americans, especially kids, are spending more time than ever in a sitting position, working at their desks, watching television or playing video games, the 2005 update of the Dietary Guidelines for Americans places more emphasis than ever on planned physical activity. For children and teens, at least 60 minutes of physical activity is recommended on most days. For adults, 30 minutes per day of moderately intense physical activity above usual activity is considered baseline; twice this amount (60 minutes per day) is actually recommended to help manage body weight and prevent gradual, unhealthy weight gain in adulthood. And for those adults who have lost weight, up to 90 minutes of exercise per day is often needed to sustain weight loss.

Don't blame Big Gulp for America's obesity
MSNBC -
He's right. Consumers bear much responsibility for their weight and the fact that two-thirds of Americans are overweight or obese. It's not the industry's fault that people don't get exercise, or that schools have cut physical education, or that people prefer the taste of Twinkies (500 million sold a year) to tofu (much less).

Serving up a treat
Borehanwood Times, UK -
Further controls on the vitamin and mineral content of school food will follow in 2008, along with an estimated £220 million investment and greater freedom for local authorities to offer students free meals. At present only children whose parents are on income support or job seeker's allowance are entitled to a free meal entitlement. At Hertswood around 20 per cent of children take up their entitlement to free meals, less than one per cent go home to eat, and the vast majority pay to eat in the school canteen.

Alternative Medicine � New Way to Lose Weight
DailyIndia.com, NY -
How hypnosis works is that it examines what is subconsciously holding you to the thinking and eating habits that keep you overweight. Hypnotists believe that if the root cause of the obesity can be alleviated, the patient will naturally begin to lose weight. It is actually a very efficient form of alternative medicine, and overall can cost much less than trips to day spas and expensive over the counter weight loss pills. Through hypnosis you can let go of fears that keep you from eating healthy, and begin to allow a positive energy flow through you, causing you to want to stick to the new way of eating and exercising.

Cops will arrest bad eating habits
Pioneer Press Online, IL -
Temptations are a constant at a police department, where doughnuts and cakes are commonly found in the lounge. It's also a fast-paced line of work that often forces its employees to eat on the go, which often means having to eat fatty fast food. That's especially the case for cops on the midnight shift, when nothing besides fast-food joints are open.
