Exercising

Remember that in my first article I told you that it is very difficult, if not impossible, to lose weight by exercising; but it helps your cardiovascular system. It shapes your body. It also helps your body to burn more fat during rest periods; and, what is more important, it gives you a sense of accomplishment which will help your self-esteem. I gained weight, as I told you before, because I had to stop practicing karate. In addition, I felt somewhat depressed and I did not pay attention to what I was eating.

To learn more about diets, health risks of obesity, calories and other food characteristics, visit the Mayo Clinic web page.

Here you a have a beautiful sunset in the Orinoco river. I appreciate your comments, questions and experiences.

Next: A series of articles about the medical and molecular biology advances that have people talking about, if not eternal youth, at least much longer lives.
