10 a.m. at Tempe Sunflower (McClintock & Southern)

2. Chocolate and Blood Pressure
Mild high blood pressure, or hypertension, was decreased by a little dark chocolate, 5 points systolic, and 2 points diastolic. Polyphenols in dark chocolate (and in red wine) were considered responsible. Journal of American Medical Association, Aug 2003.
Choose healthy dark chocolates with high cocoa and minimal ingredients. I prefer dark Ghirardelli 60% and up.
3. Hidden Costs of Obesity
Obesity is a major factor of airline cost increases in the last 10-20 years. In the '90s, passenger weight increased on average 10 pounds. The fuel required to keep this extra weight aloft cost airlines $275 million in 2000. The extra 350 million gallons of fuel burned released 3.8 million additional tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. CDC, Nov 2004.
Fly safely by stretching before, during, and after flights to prevent deep vein thrombosis, stiffness, and pain. Avoid gaining weight during holiday season by increasing your exercise and watching your portions. Most of all skip the daily sweets.
