Remedy the diseases of modern times simply and effectively with us!

In our rushing world we have to face “diseases” due to the civilisation that were unimaginable a couple of decades ago.

In the last couple of years the recognition has been stronger and stronger that the secret of a happy, meaningful life is the preservation and maintenance of our health.

We don’t have time, we need to act now!

In our country and in Europe in 10 years there have become 3 times more overweight people than in 1997. According to experts if this continues by 2010, 20% of the population of Europe (150 million people) will be overweight and 15 million children will suffer from this problem.

Among the social impacts of the phenomenon we can mention the worse performance at school, the career entry with handicap, and later on the increased risk of serious diseases (high blood pressure, diabetes, cardio vascular diseases, certain types of cancer, etc.).

Why don’t we recognise on time that we need to change, to do somethingbefore it is too late?

According to TÁRKI’s current survey most Hungarians are inclined to have a distorted image of their body. 65% of the population think that they belong to the category of normal body weight, but only 40% really do. Only 26% consider themselves overweight or obese, but in reality 53% of the population belong here. 28% of the people with severe obesity think that they have a normal physique and that they don’t need to lose weight. The most significant difference between self concept and reality was by 2% of overweight people who considered themselves thin. Most of the overweight people who think they have a normal weight are highly educated, still active, working people. Middle-aged or elder women have a slightly more realistic self concept. 30-35% of them admit their weight.
