Kentucky is the Unhealthiest State!

Posted by Amanda | On: Jul 19 2005

According to a special report from the Louisville Courrier Journal published on the main page of yahoo today, our state- Kentucky- is the unhealthiest state due to smoking, traditional southern fatty foods, and sedentary lifestyles. I guess I am among the minority in Kentucky because I do not smoke, I dont overindulge in fatty foods ( except reese cups..oops! but I’m really working on changing this) and I am not sedentary. How can I be with 2 small kids? I also walk daily and my husband and I have recently started an Exercise/weight training program. Yay for us! We are among the few not “killing ourselves”.

I really hope the state can work on this crisis and focus on curing the problem. Education and awareness for the younger generation is imperative.
