Poor Health Habits and Workplace Productivity, Remedy Cheaper than Zoloft, and Docs Advise “Do as I Do”
New research shows poor health habits linked to subpar work performance: “More than 10 percent of sick leave and the higher levels of productivity loss at work may be attributed to lifestyle behaviors and obesity.”
Cheaper than Zoloft. For hundreds of years, indigenous South Africans have chewed a plant they say reduces stress, relieves hunger, sedates and elevates moods.
Doctors are more likely to counsel patients to do what doctors do. Exercisers, e.g., advise patient to exercise.
My doctor has a BMI well under 20, so he is always harping on BMI. I suppose if he ran marathons, he would prescribe running to lose weight.
I would almost think it self-evident that doctors are more likely to recommend their own positive lifestyle habits — while not harping on their faults. I doubt if many obese doctors advise their obese patients to lose weight unless there is some underlying factor like diabetes or hypertension.
It sounds like the plant is cheaper and just as good.
So when you select a doctor, you need to ask about more than his/her credentials, training, etc. You need to ask what they do in their personal lives?
Interesting approach.
