At the beginning of the year, some people make resolutions to improve their health.<\/p>\n
This is an interesting realization and one worth repeating every day.<\/p>\n
Every day we are a new person.<\/p>\n
Every day we make choices, hundreds if not thousands of choices.<\/p>\n
When to get up, when to eat, when to go to work, when to stop at a red light, when to go to the market, when to walk, when to criticize the boss or the spouse…<\/p>\n
It’s human. We are the result of our choices.<\/p>\n
Recently, in the newspaper, I was reading an article about anti-cholesterol as a preventive measure?<\/p>\n
Fortunately, there was a ? At the end of the title.<\/p>\n
Based on the words of an American specialist, it encouraged healthy people to prevent heart disease by taking an anti-cholesterol medication.<\/p>\n
When I read these words, I can`t help but think that this specialist wants us to choose what is good for him.<\/p>\n
I can`t believe that a serious and honest specialist would think that real prevention is achieved by taking drugs with considerable and often dangerous side effects.<\/p>\n
I wonder who benefits from the crime.<\/p>\n
Someone else has already said: the bigger the lie, the more likely it is to be believed.<\/p>\n
We are in a consumer society, a little crazy where stress is omnipresent.<\/p>\n
The good news is that we are in a free society.<\/p>\n
We still have the choice to choose what we eat, to move more, to manage our stress better.<\/p>\n
That’s real prevention.<\/p>\n
I know it’s easier said than done.<\/p>\n
But I also know that with your participation and a good team, you can succeed in living better today.<\/p>\n
This is what we wish you at the beginning of this year.<\/p>\n
