Let’s stay healthily alive
Wealthy Africans and African Americans are over-weight on the average. This is especially true of the nouveau riche among them who believe that the one way to enjoy their new found wealth is to eat, drink and be merry. They want to catch up on the long years of lack and scrappy feeding, but soon realize how badly their health condition has deteriorated because of over weight.
Usually you notice them by the big pot bellies they are carrying around. For the women they load their fat around their hips and backsides which often may be mistaken for pregnancy, but for men, no explanation is good enough. Some jocularly refer to it as the “evidence of good living” while those who are laden with the burden, know better.
Stomach fat is perhaps the most difficult kind of fat to deal with. They soon realize that it is unhealthy, and would give an arm and a leg, to get rid of it.
You can test yourself right away, by measuring with a tailor’s tape, your height and your waist. If the measurement of your waist line is more than half your height, then you are overweight and need to do something about it fast. There are proven ways of burning fat and feeding the muscles and you must fall in line if you want to enjoy your wealth for longer periods on this earth.
Most times this realization comes as a result of a near total breakdown of their body system manifesting in one of several serious illnesses arising from fat gain such as diabetes, hypertension and obesity.
A close friend of mine recently died from complications bordering on excessive weight gain, but of course, his close relations blamed his death on witchcraft machinations of some kindred enemy against whom they have a land dispute. But I know what killed him. He slumped and died at his work place. He died of heart failure caused by hypertension and complications associated with diabetes. These days it is common to hear about people dropping death suddenly even without the popular “after a brief illness”.

Some of these complications can “silently” lead to damage to the heart, kidney and blood vessels and may occur if conditions remain unchecked, increasing the risk for stroke (brain damage), heart attack, kidney or heart (cardiac) failure, hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis or arteriosclerosis), eye damage, or even death. We are all afraid to die regardless of the quality of the life we live, aren’t we?
In West Africa, no one performs autopsy on dead bodies unless a strong allegation of homicide is being investigated by the police. So, it is our culture to bury our dead with the causes of those deaths. We so respect the human corpse that we think it is sacrilegious to probe for the cause of their demise.
In the olden days, our fore fathers opened the stomachs of dead people whom they suspected to have died from bad diseases, to cut out the diseased organs so that the “incarnates” of such deceased persons, will not be born with those same ailments. For whatever it was worth, there may have been some benefits from that practice other than what they contemplated.
But nowadays, even though we know better, we still inordinately revere dead bodies. And prefer to endanger the living by shunning the prescriptions of modern medical science to do a post-mortem.
The meat of this article is a declaration that since people are dying daily from the effects of over indulgence and we still don’t care to track the causes, then lets take some basic precautions. My recommendation is that you watch what you eat, seek medical attention when you don’t feel normal and start an exercise program that will make you sweat for at least 15 minutes per day. Hopefully my next article will address the issue of healthy diet for us West Africans and African Americans.
For those who are diagnosed already of one of these medical conditions, one way out you must quickly consider and adopt is, an intensive weight loss program such as this one
