Okay, here’s a couple of interesting facts.

The average life expectancy for people born in the U.S. in 1900 was 47 years.
For people born in the U.S. today it’s 77 years.

There are 45 countries with longer life expectancies than the U.S.

HOWEVER,

as our consumption of lousy food increases, the following is happening:

30.5 percent of U.S. adults are considered obese.
Right now, that statistic shaves about 9 months off of our average U.S. life expectancy.

The way things are going, by the year 2055, the percentages will be so high that obesity is expected to reduce the average U.S. lifespan by around 5 YEARS!

5 YEARS!

I’m going on a diet/exercise regime.
