Doctor Fuwong certainly knows his stuff.

It all makes sense to me and i’m going to “give it a go” for 6 months.

Q1: Doctor, I’ve heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life.

Is this true?

A: Your heart is only good for so many beats, and that’s it…

don’t waste them on exercise.

Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will not

make you live longer;

that’s like saying you can extend the life of your car by driving

it faster.

Want to live longer? Take a nap.

Q2: Should I reduce my alcohol intake?

A: No, not at all. Wine is made from fruit. Brandy is distilled wine,

that means they take the water out of the fruity bit so you get even more

of the goodness that way. Beer is also made out of grain. Bottoms up!

Q3: How can I calculate my body/fat ratio?

A: Well, if you have a body and you have fat, your ratio is one to one.

If you have two bodies, your ratio is two to one, etc.

Q4: What are some of the advantages of participating in a regular

exercise program?

A: Can’t think of a single one, sorry. My philosophy is: No Pain…Good!

Q5: Aren’t fried foods bad for you?

A: YOU’RE NOT LISTENING!!! ….. Foods are fried these days in

vegetable oil.

In fact, they’re permeated in it. How could getting more

vegetables be bad for you?

Q6: Will sit-ups help prevent me from getting a little soft around

the middle?

A: Definitely not! When you exercise a muscle, it gets bigger.

You should only be doing sit-ups if you want a bigger stomach.

Q7: Is chocolate bad for me?

A: Are you crazy? HELLO Cocoa beans ! Another vegetable!!!

It’s the best feel-good food around!

Q8: Is swimming good for your figure?

A: If swimming is good for your figure, explain whales to me.

Q9: Is getting in-shape important for my lifestyle?

A: Hey! ‘Round’ is a shape!

Well, I hope this has cleared up any misconceptions you may have had

about food and diets.

And remember:

‘Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention

of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body,

but rather to skid in sideways -

Chardonnay in one hand – chocolate in the other -

body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and

screaming ‘WOO HOO, What a Ride’

AND…..

For those of you who watch what you eat, here’s the final word on

nutrition and health.

It’s a relief to know the truth after all those conflicting

nutritional studies.

1. The Japanese eat very little fat

and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

2. The Mexicans eat a lot of fat

and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

3. The Chinese drink very little red wine

and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

4. The Italians drink a lot of red wine

and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

5. The Germans drink a lot of beers and eat lots of sausages and fats

and suffer fewer heart attacks than Americans.

CONCLUSION

Eat and drink what you like.

Speaking English is apparently what kills you.
