Bad news, Good news
Its been so long since i last blogged! But here i am again! Whoo hoo! And the hols are coming to an end for some of us... and strangely enough.... im not THAT sad.... i think i might actually be getting used to having no/very short holidays...heh.... getting geared up for working life... hahaha!
Anyway first the Bad News: Obesity increases risk of cardiovascular disease.... yes not really new news but still bad news...
But heres the Good news: Obesity improves prognosis of cardiovascular disease!!! WHOA! You read right! Comparing ppl with cardiovascular disease, those who were obese fared better than those who were not obese! AMAZING! But those who were obese and lost weight had the BEST prognosis! Yeah...super confusing....
So the moral of the story is, if u have heart disease, u better hope u r obese...if not...try not to get heart disease by not being obese... heh....
(for those interested, heres a link...theres only one reference though but i trust medscape...heh...http://cme.medscape.com/viewarticle/703966?src=cmemp)
