How to assess your weight?

Obesity is one of the diseases of the affluent world. It is indeed a silent killer. Obesity has been linked to diabetes, heart disease, strokes and hypertension. Obesity has been called as a pandemic as it tends to affect millions of individuals across the globe.

Are you obese? Are you overweight? What are these terms? How does one find out?

A simple calculation can tell us what type of pattern we fit into. This is called as the BMI or the Body Mass Index. This ratio is got by dividing your weight in Kilos by your height in meters squared. For example if you weigh 90 kilos and your height is 1.8 meters, then your BMI is 90/(1.8)(1.8) = 27.78 Kg/Sg.m.

<17.9: Underweight. 18 - 24.9: Normal. 25 - 29.9: Overweight. 30 - 34.9: Grade I obesity.

Pitfalls of Modern Medicine

modern Medicine (which people call Allopathy) has done wonders to the human race. While the average life expectancy has grown remarkably across the globe, many communicable diseases have been vanquished. And, yet, the Modern Medicine is still inherently flawed,
For one thing, many of the ‘wonder drugs’ have unpredictable side-effects on its users. The reason for this is the varied genetic composition that interacts differently with a given chemical compound. Though there are no well documented studies on the ill-effects of drugs, it is no more a secret that lakhs die every year solely due to drug toxicity-a case of treatment being worse than the disease!

Lessons in Management – 2

In keeping with the encouraging reply by admin, I have decided to post another good management lesson.

A turkey used to see an eagle sitting up a tree daily and wanted to get to that high spot. The turkey told about this to the cow. The cow told the turkey that if the turkey nibbled on some of his (the cow’s) droppings which were packed with nutrients he will get the strength and energy to reach the top of the tree. The turkey nibbled on the droppings daily and was able to scale the tree daily with more height each day. Finally the turkey was able to reach the top of the tree. Soon a hunter spotted the turkey on the treetop and shot the bird down.

The moral of this story? Bullshit might be able to get you to the top but it will not keep you there!!
