Bas is the man
I’ve seen this video clip several times, and I always bust out laughing. Aside from the obvious entertainment value however, Bas does provide several useful tips within this short clip.

Eat Less To Live Longer

As stated within the link below:
Reporting in the September 21 issue of the journal Cell, researchers from Harvard Medical School, in collaboration with scientists from Cornell Medical School and the National Institutes of Health, have discovered two genes in mammalian cells that act as gatekeepers for cellular longevity. When cells experience certain kinds of stress, such as caloric restriction, these genes rev up and help protect cells from diseases of aging.
Definitely some interesting reading within the research and follow up references.

I found this article to be an interesting read:
I don’t know about you, but I’ll take my chances with an Obese-Free Economy

7 commentsAnother Study?
A new study suggests that being overweight is hard on the heart.
Being Overweight Is Hard On The Heart
Is it me, or does this study “prove” something that is already pretty damn obvious? Why do we spend money proving the obvious? Of course obesity will be hard on the heart. Does this really come as a surprise to anyone? Should I conduct a study on driving while blind folded? Do we really need to test 300,000 drivers to prove that driving with a blind fold is dangerous, and detrimental to the automobile insurance industry?
Why don’t we use the money that finances these obvious studies and actually APPLY it towards a solution.
News Flash - WE ALREADY KNOW THAT OBESITY IS BAD!
Now, it is time to do something about it. Perhaps, we can spend the money and focus on educating society regarding prevention strategies, exercise methods, proper nutrition, and so on.
Just a Monday morning rant… I feel better now.

Think about where and when you run…
Just another reason why I prefer running through wooded trails and country roads.
