Obesity is also associated with a sedentary lifestyle , which is now among the top 10 causes of death and disability worldwide .

The Survey on Health Survey ( CCHS ) 2004 revealed that 23.1% of Canadians ( 5.5 million) 18 years of age were obese ( BMI over 30 ) . In addition , 36.1 % ( 8.6 million ) were overweight (BMI 25 to 29.9 ) and almost two thirds (59.2%) of Canadians are overweight or obese.

Arthritis is the third leading cause of chronic health problems and people with arthritis are not frequent users of anti -inflammatory drugs - drugs ( NSAIDs) , which can cause gastrointestinal (GI ) bleeding. Deaths from gastrointestinal bleeding were responsible for 1,322 deaths in 1998.

While most people have heard of the benefits of diet, supplements and exercise to other diseases , the benefits of a healthy lifestyle for arthritis largely neglected .

Your food choices should focus on whole grains, monounsaturated fats and AGE , fruits , vegetables and lean protein sources . Try to choose organic , free range and wild ( grass or grain fed ) whenever possible and eating fish rich in omega oils like salmon , mackerel and anchovy at least 2 times a week . An easy to remember rule as to the intake of calories is the rule 10 servings . This means eating 4 servings of quality protein and fat ( serving size is the size of the palm ) , 3 servings of complex carbohydrates ( 3 cups) and 3 servings of fruit .
