What is the single best thing we can do for our health.

[Rebecca]

A Doctor-Professor answers the old question "What is the single best thing we can do for our health" in a completely new way.

I really like his style

Thank you for posting that! Before I opened the thread I saw the title and was planning to give the very same answer but he did it so much more entertainingly, eloquently and compellingly (is that a word?). I'll be passing that one along to all those people in my life who are know but still don't get up and move. I have seen with my own eyes that people who are on the edge of diabetes come back, people lower their BP from dangerous to perfectly normal, lose pounds and eliminate pain in their knees and hips,feel more cheerful and less tired. That's my new favourite thing.

Yes, this is what I like to hear. I was at a medical conference with my father-in-law, who is a surgeon, a few years ago and a doctor gave a very similar presentation. Using our bodies to do what they are designed to do, as medicine, seems to make a lot of sense.

Yeah, I saw that on another running forum. It's not that he's saying anything we haven't all heard a hundred times before. It's the presentation style that's very compelling. Certainly catches the attention better than a page full of text with a lame photo or two, so maybe more people will pay attention. Trouble is, every place I've seen it so far is merely preaching to the choir.
