THIS
IS PROBABLY THE WORLD'S MOST CONCISE WEBSITE ON HEALTH SO READING
THE COMPLETE WEBSITE WILL BENEFIT YOU IMMENSELY
Dear Friends,
The
purpose of this website is to promote the ‘IMPORTANCE OF HEALTH’
among fellow ‘INDIANS’. See we invest in shares, we invest in
properties, but do we ever invest in “Actual
Health”? Although a majority of us choose to invest in “Health
Insurance” pay hefty premiums and start feeling secure.
Do we ever realize that investment in ‘PREVENTION’ is equally
‘IMPORTANT’ and costs much less. Unfortunately we realize the ‘IMPORTANCE OF HEALTH’ only
when we have ‘LOST’ it. Now spare a thought about the kind of
“insecurities” that a person (despite the “Health
Insurance”) goes through who suffers a health reverse, also
spare a thought for the “anxieties” that the family members
pass through. The pertinent question over here is why health
is so ‘IMPORTANT’ for ‘INDIANS’ after all what is wrong with
our health? Consider these facts:
- India is called the ‘Diabetes Capital’
of the world (largest number of Diabetics in the
world ).
- India is also called the Hypertension
(High Blood Pressure) Capital of the World.
- Another projection of the World Health Organization
(W.H.O.) and the Indian Council of Medical Research
(I.C.M.R) says that by the year 2020 apart from
being the "Diabetes" and "Hypertension"
Capital of the world India will also be the "Heart
Attack" Capital of the World.
- A recently concluded World Health Organisation(W.H.O.)
study estimates that by the year 2010, globally
60% of Heart Patients would be INDIANS.
- INDIANS have 3 to 4 times higher risk of developing
Diabetes or Heart Problems, in comparison to White
Americans, six times higher than the Chinese and
20 times higher than the Japanese.
- One kilogram of extra fat contains something like
300 kilometers of capillaries which your heart has
to push the blood through. Now imagine how much
harder your heart has to work for each extra kilogram?
- Probably the worst news is that, everyday younger
people are falling prey to these diseases, as Dr.
H. S. Rissam, a Cardiologist of Indian origin in
the United Kingdom puts it “In Sixties we
saw Grand Fathers as patients, in Seventies Fathers,
in Eighties Sons, now we see Grandsons with Heart
Attacks.
- ”HIGHER BODY FAT PERCENTAGE
coupled with INSULIN SENSITIVITY
among INDIANS in comparison to
other ethnic groups, makes them genetically pre-disposed
to these diseases.
- Even underweight Indians have higher Fat
content in their bodies than overweight foreigners.
Doctors say that it is this invisible Fat that is
the cause of concern. Dr Shashank Joshi
of Leelavati Hospital calls us “ the
thin Fat Indians”.
- A recent study has directly linked 40%
of the Cancers to POOR DIET and
OBESITY

I would be doing a great dis-service
to the visitors of this website, if I fail to share this eye-opening
experience which I had on 12/12/2007 at Rails Museum Auditorium,
New Delhi, when I got to hear two leading Doctors. Dr
David Heber (U.S.A) and Dr Anoop Misra (India)
[if you want to know the profile of these two Gentlemen
just put their Names in Google and hit the
search button] Dr David Heber talked about
the OBESITY problem and told that by
the year 2020 India will register a 50% increase in Diabetes
cases. He emphasized the need for Good Nutrition
and Exercise because exercise strengthens muscles and
“muscle burns more fat” He also talked about the
importance of Proteins in food and that “Plant
Proteins are the best and the safest”
Then Dr Anoop Misra was invited. Dr
Anoop Misra told us that a survey done in the
Year 1975 revealed that only 2% of Delhi’s population
had Diabetes. In the Year 1989 it went up to
7-8%. In 2004 the figure was 17%. The latest
surveys reveal that 35% of Delhi’s population
either has or is on the brink of developing Diabetes.
He also informed that Indians suffer Heart Attacks at
a relatively younger age, which are more severe in nature and
often prove fatal. A major reason he said is the lifestyle
changes in the last 20 Years as JUNK FOOD
(Fast Food) has become more popular [Don’t forget to read
“Avoid Junk Food: Excerpts from the report: Finger-licking
good? Time to junk it” on this website] As, Dr
David Heber said, “junk food has the
worst nutritional profile”
Dr Anoop Misra then narrated a very interesting
incident. He told us that once he was invited to address a Seminar
organized by the Times of India Group in Mumbai, there
a very “Senior Journalist” asked
him a question that “Why Indians are not amongst
the top long distance Athletes or why don’t we see any
Indian in the finals of a 100 meters race in an Olympic?”
Then Dr Misra said that for that matter our
neighbouring Cricketing countries have produced Fast Bowlers
whereas we have not! Dr Misra explained it
thus he said, “the Indian population is unique”.
“Centuries ago India faced famines, which weakened our
muscles and our bodies started to store Fat for energy”.
We have retained the same Genetic make-up as a
result today our bodies have more Fat and less Muscle.
Dr Misra told us that surveys establish that
“Indians exercise the least in the World”.
Dr Misra emphasized the need for a daily exercise
[incidentally it was Dr Misra who conducted
the study quoted on this website under “Excerpts
from the AIIMS study titled: Pump Iron, Muscle out Diabetes”
don’t forget to read it]
Dr Misra also said that the classical
belief that women were protected against Heart Attacks by their
hormone Estrogen before Menopause, has also proved wrong as
today young women are falling victims to Heart Attacks.
Today I realize that although my purpose of losing weight [you
can read “My Story” on this website]
was to get rid of my lower back pain, I really did not know
that just a little bit of change in the lifestyle can have so
many benefits. So whether you are over weight [you can easily
judge using “Three easy ways to judge whether
you are overweight” given on this website] or
not you must take utmost care of your Health.
Its time to “GET ACTIVE”
Now pick up any Study on these
diseases and you will find that the major reasons that make
us susceptible to these diseases are:
- Obesity (mainly due to our injudicious eating habits).
- Sedentary lifestyle (lack of exercise)
- Stress.
However the good news is that these diseases
are easily PREVENTABLE.
The effort of this website really is to promote
a way of HEALTHY LIVING. I would like to call
it the “www.fitme4life.com
way of life”
The following Three Packages are designed exactly for those
who want to “Lose Weight” those who want “Daily
Fitness” and those who want freedom from “Stress”
Package I: (ANTI-OBESITY)
FOR THOSE WHO WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT
a)
Measurement of your accurate body weight and Body
Fat Percentage on Digital Body Fat Analyzing Machine
ALL IN
THE COMFORT OF YOUR OWN HOME
NOTE: It’s very much possible
for a person to look lean and fit but still have a higher
BODY FAT PERCENTAGE.
b)
One meal-replacement Shake
Mix* from World Leader in Nutritional Solutions,
40 Million customers worldwide (Scientifically
formulated to provide the nutrition of a meal, contains
no medicine, 100% VEGETARIAN) [Efficacy of
this product proven by a recent study at the APOLLO
HOSPITALS, CHENNAI on OVERWEIGHT subjects]
*Available separately (without
this package) as well for those who cannot exercise due
to some reason.
NOTE: Meal-replacement vs Dieting-Research
proves that globally anyone who has ever tried to lose
weight has tried "dieting" as the first step,
but data also suggests that a majority of them fail and
then sink into depression, which makes them eat more and
become even more "sedentary" as a result they
gain weight instead of losing it. Because of these failures
Meal-replacement has come to be accepted as an ideal option,
as Meal-replacement gives you the required nutrition minus
extra calories.

complete body workout (based on the research that Anaerobic

Package III: STRESS
MANAGEMENT
Stress has often been referred to as “Silent
Killer”. Although the Human Body is fully
equipped to deal with an occasional Stressful situation,
but prolonged Stress can seriously undermine one’s
Health. Being unable to deal with Stress has
a damaging effect on mind and body. Doctors
have long suspected that too much Stress can cause significant
Health Problems, but only in the last Twenty Years
or so have they begun to discover the full extent of how
damaging Stress can really be. While Stress
alone cannot be the Primary cause of illnesses, but it
can be a significant contributing factor.
Problems like Fear, Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia
etc and in some cases even Hypertension
are linked to high Stress.
It’s a proven fact that rapidly progressing ill-health
often goes hand-in-hand with ‘Not being
able to RELAX’. Hence learning
to let go of Stress will calm your Mind as well as your
Body and Strengthen your Immune System along
the way.
Our Proven, Natural and Brief, Relaxation/Stress
Relief Program goes beyond the traditional Relaxation/Stress
Relief techniques and Suits your Budget
PERFECTLY.
The Program contains:
Two Relaxation Exercises
Two Breathing Exercises
and one “Speak the Stress out” Technique for
relieving pent-up Stress
Price: Rs.990/- (for Individuals only)
Corporate Solutions also available |
The beauty of these packages is that you don’t
need any guidance beyond one demonstration. You don’t
need to invest in any expensive machines, besides you can do
these exercises anywhere in the World. It takes hardly 10-15
minutes everyday, and not more than 3 minutes for the “Stress
Management” Exercises.
Because the biggest problem of the 21st Century is
that:
