Lower back exercises ...

Whilst the directness of the Dutch people comes across initially as abrupt and rude, it's something I've come to respect. Because it is intrinsically more honest, that always wins out.

So, here goes. Sorry, but if you're seriously overweight, there is only pain ahead.

Back, knee, and ankle joint, and diabetes; think rather of our free weight loss programs.

And if you're a smoker and obese, well then it's just a disaster waiting at your door. Direct, rude, abrupt, and TRUE. All of the above plus a stroke or heart attack.

Start your children on Water for Kids, rather than all the fizzy drinks on the market today. Otherwise they too will be needing to go on our free weight loss programs. A litre of a common cola contains an unbelievable 32 teaspoons of sugar; obesity; all you are doing is selling sickness to your children.

"Those who will not hear, must feel."

Dutch proverb.
