NFL and obesity
From Conservapedia
NFL and obesity concerns how watching NFL games and the high percentage of advertisements for unhealthy foods on the shows may be contributing an American epidemic of obesity.
| “ | Among the 10 sports organizations that young viewers watch most, from the NFL to Little League, the NIH-funded research team identified dozens of sponsors and hundreds of associated advertisements promoting food and beverage products. The vast majority of those ads touted unhealthy items, including chips, candies, sodas, and other foods high in fat, sodium, or sugar, and low in nutritional value.[1] | ” |
In contrast, a study showed that reading the Bible helps to lose weight:
| “ | Those who lost more than 10 pounds had studied their Bibles 287 days compared with the 107 days of study by those who lost less than 10 pounds of weight. The study’s conclusion? The more you study your Bible, the more likely you are to be successful in losing weight.[2] | ” |
