OVERWEIGHT

… THEN YOUR BODY IS UNDER THIS SORT OF STRAIN

When you are over 30 years of age, excess weight can be hazardous. Overweight has been closely associated with heart troubles, diabetes, arthritis and other disorders.

STAY HEALTHY … KEEP FIT

The Health Department's free booklet ‘Slimming’ gives you an extensive calorie chart and diet programme complete with healthy weight margins for your height, age and build.

YOU USE THREE TIMES MORE CALORIES WALKING BRISKLY THAN SITTING.

Regular exercise is important in weight control. It tones your muscles, improves circulation and general well-being.
