Snowball Effect!

Think you have to lose a lot to see hellthy results?  Think again! 

Dr. Oz [10], in promoting his new program, Just 10, gives us 10 reasons to lose just 10 pounds!  Yep, just dropping 10 pounds can significantly improve the following:


  1. Lowers your cholesterol by 10%.
  2. Lowers your blood pressure, which lowers your risk of heart disease, kidney failure, and dementia.
  3. Reduces your risk of heart attack by half...HALF!
  4. Reduces your risk of dementia.
  5. Reduces your risk of developing sleep apnea.
  6. Reduces your joint pain, as 10 pounds equals 30 pounds of pressure on your knees!
  7. Reduces your risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes by up to 60%!
  8. Reduces your risk of cancer, in fact studies are showing that an 8 pound loss shows a reduction in breast and uterine cancers.
  9. Improves your sex life, as nearly 80% of overweight men experience erectile dysfunction and diabetes and high blood pressure both decrease your sexual drive.
  10. Reduces your reliance on medications, specifically those to lower cholesterol and blood pressure and alleviate joint pain.


All that and your jeans fit better, how can you argue with that?  Thanks Dr. Oz!!
