KEEP THEM HEALTHY
THE VEGETARIAN PAN
DO WE EAT RIGHT?
EAT WITH DISCERNMENT
- Well done! - So, what do you say?
Help yourselves. As you can see, there's plenty.
No doubt about that.
It's going to take a lot of work.
- Well done! - Thank you.
Cheers! To your health!
With such good wishes, that paunch is definitely going to grow.
Is this for me?
Be sensible, now.
Don't give him anything. He's had enough.
The master is proud of his pedigree dog.
He keeps a tight rein for him to stay lean.
What about Master himself? Doesn't he want to stay healthy?
Doesn't he know that to stay healthy, he needs to eat right?
I.e. eat neither too fat nor too much.
And not too much carbohydrates.
Bread, potatoes, pasta
consist essentially of carbohydrates, and sweets too.
Is our friend unaware that people with normal weight
have a higher life expectancy?
That's why he had to pay a risk surcharge
on his life insurance policy recently.
Now he realises why.
This is not good, my friend. Look at this.
Now he can see that his heart
and circulation have been damaged.
We know that he brought this disease upon himself.
It thrives on prosperity and wealth.
Our friend is well-off.
He stopped starving a long time ago.
On the contrary.
He can afford to eat copiously.
High-calorie food.
A lot more than his body needs.
One calorie is the amount of heat required
to warm up 1 litre of water by 1°C.
The calorie is a measure of energy.
A large portion of calories is used to generate the right temperature
for machines or organisms to operate.
Further, the need for calories depends on how heavy the work is.
Nowadays, our friend can afford to drive everywhere
instead of walking.
And so he needs fewer calories.
He rides the elevator, like many of us.
Our armchairs have become cosier,
our newspapers thicker,
our walks shorter,
our TV nights longer, sadly.
More and more TV viewers,
even more cars,
many more papers.
Consumption of fat is rising.
So are cardiac and circulation diseases.
Clearly these pleasant, useful things of our times
aren't being used properly.
It can't go on like this.
MORE AFFECTED BY STRESS LOWER LIFE EXPECTANCY
What now?
