The way to avoid insulin resistance, obesity, diabetes, hypertension, etc. is to control HDL cholesterol and Triglycerides.

The 2 main markers when talking about heart disease are: HDL cholesterol and triglycerides, not total cholesterol. If your HDL cholesterol is above 60 and your triglycerides are below 100, you don’t have to worry about your total cholesterol.

In order to get to those 2 markers you have to: exercise 30 minutes everyday at a medium high level of exertion, eat a low carbohydrate diet (paleo diet) and take 3.000 mg of fish oil everyday.

I was wondering if you could suggest a “core program” I could do at home? I seem to be suffering with lower back issues and was told by the doc that I needed a core strengthening program. I’m 36 and thin and feel like a weak blob. I would like to be strong. I walk (running kills me) and ride my bike. I like to swim as well. I tried paddling for the dragon boats but that wrecked my back. The internet has a lot of info yet some of it is just so confusing/contradicting. You look GREAT and seem to know what you’re doing and talking about…I can tell that by reading the blogs. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.

**don’t enter me in the giveaway because I am not in the US right now**

Thanks for posting this- I walk a lot (around 5-8 miles a day) and often feel guilty because I don’t hit up a gym or go running…walking, right now, is all my body can do so thanks for reminding me that anything we DO do is a step towards health (literally…ha)

Miz,
You delivered a great message and excellent awareness here. It really is as simple as making small changes to improve our health. Besides, those small changes become big as time goes on, we just have to be patient. I’ve started walking for fitness because my week is full of fitness activities at the gym, however, chasing my toddler down the road while he rides his trike qualifies for some serious workouts. Soon we’ll be riding together Your blog Rock!!
