Paging through a magazine recently I saw an ad by the makers of Xenadrine for a new product called Xenadrine Detox. Among its claims are that it “Helps to purify the body and promote weight loss.” It also contains lemon, maple syrup and molasses - remiscent of Beyonce’s disgusting maple syrup/cayenne pepper diet.
If you look […]
You’ve probably seen the motorized wheelchairs available in grocery stores for the elderly or those with disabilities. I believe they also have them at malls and airports. Now they are being rented out in Las Vegas hotels to some able-bodied tourists as well.
Finding the Sin City strip too exhausting to walk along, more and more […]
I was looking through this month’s Women’s Health when I came across a blurb on glucose levels in those who don’t exercise. Apparently, simply being inactive for a period of time can raise your glucose levels. This causes all kinds of icky things like weight gain (especially in the stomach) and can lead to […]
My fiance was sweet enough to pick up a 12-pack of the new Diet Coke Plus (Diet Coke formulated with vitamins) for me at a local gas station here in Knoxville. Now, I’m a huge fan of the original Diet Coke, and I’m a big diet soda drinker, so I wanted to give this […]
Dutch consumer product group Unilever, which includes Lipton teas and Skippy peanut butter, has announced that it will not allow unhealthy looking (read: anorexic) models or actors/actresses in its ads.
I’ve never really seen skinny models in peanut butter advertisements, but there’s always a first.
This is in response to the two anorexic Latin American models who […]
I’ve been an avid reader of Fitness for women for some time now. I have always coveted the look of their cover models and fitness models, although I’ve come to the conclusion that no amount of exercise is going to get me a four-pack, muscular arms and sinewy legs (in a nice way!). However […]
Subway has issued a new contest - the Subway Fresh Fit Sweepstakes - to go with their Fresh Fit initiative that launched in March (featuring healthier menu choices). Contestants who enter are automatically eligible to win one of two grand prizes. These include a trip to LA for two to train with PUSH.tv celebrity […]
I just picked up the latest FitnessRx for women - my absolute favorite fitness magazine. I’ve lost my subscription since moving, so I was delighted to find it in a local grocery store.
It gave me many ideas for posting, which I hope to get out in the next week or so. However, the article that […]
Looks like Shrek is the spokesperon (spokesman?) for the anti-obesity campaign, urging kids to exercise at least an hour a day. A group for children’s advocacy wants the Department of Health and Human Services to pull him from the campaign.
Shrek, the animated ogre from the popular movies Shrek and Shrek Two (Shrek the Third is […]
For those of you who diet, I’m sure it’s not uncommon to reach for a diet drink in between meals. After all, they’re delicious and bubbly, and they fill you up without any calories (can you tell I like them?) However, there are always certain naysayers who will “helpfully” remind you that the sweetener aspartame […]
