Enemy Soldiers on American Soil

Fort Lauderdale, FL - The reports are coming in. The casualty rate is extremely high. Enemy soldiers have killed over a million Americans right on American soil last year alone and it's happening again this year. No, they are not terrorists. They don't wear uniforms. They do have names. We know who they are. Their names are ...

(PRWEB) August 27, 2003 -- "Hey, is there a war going on here? Looks like you're dressed for battle!" a sunbather on Fort Lauderdale Beach shouts as he sees Bob Weinstein, known as The Health Colonel, getting the civilians into shape with his military-style workouts designed for all fitness levels called beach boot camp. Bob's immediate response, "Yes! There is a war going on right here on American soil, and a lot, yes, too many Americans are dying daily!" While sipping on his beer and puffing his cigarette, the sunbather inquires further, "Am I missing something here? This is the United States of America! We're a superpower! And anyway, we've got Homeland Security. I didn't see the threat alert level go up."

Bob stops, kneels down and explains, "You mean you haven't noticed? The enemy is killing over a million Americans a year, mostly civilians. It is both an overt and covert operation. Overt because we know why it's happening - bad eating and sedentary lifestyle. Our Intel, in civilian terms known as research, has documented this. Covert because the enemy uses an approach that I call slow death. That means, by the time we know it hits us, it's too late or almost too late; this death is so slow we forget that it's coming - and here's what really sends this enemy under deep cover. The excuse that has filtered down in the form of propaganda, 'Won't happen to me! It's only statistics!' This is killing Americans."

The enemy soldiers each have a different approach to killing Americans. The names of these solders are Cancer, Heart Disease and Stroke, just to name a few. The casualty figures are so high that Bob cautions the sunbather to take a deep breath and remain seated. Here is the annual total of Americans killed by the soldiers Cancer and Heart Disease:

1. Heart Disease 700,000 Killed in action (2,000 killed daily)
2. Cancer 500,000 killed in action (1,300 killed daily)

Now Bob has some questions he poses to the sunbather:

Why aren't these casualty figures on the front-pages of our newspapers daily?

Why are there no mandatory guidelines for physicians to prescribe exercise?

Why are there no mandatory guidelines for physicians to include an assessment of the eating habits just the same as drawing blood for bloodwork of a patient and it,s overall health impact before prescribing medication?

Why are our medical schools not including exercise and nutrition science as a mandatory part of curriculum?

Why do we find sugar, chemical, fat and salt vending machines in our schools, hospitals and places of work?

Why is there so little healthy fast food?

Most importantly, what will it take to significantly reduce the numbers of deaths caused by lifestyle related eating and living habits?

The sunbather replies, "Hey man, I'm just a tourist. What are you bothering me for?" He then tosses his cigarette and grumbles, "I guess this is killing me. Smokin' too many of these things anyway."
