Ramblers and government urge families to bring back the Christmas day walk (UK)
"The Ramblers have teamed up with the Change4Life campaign to bring back the traditional Christmas day walk. They're calling on families across the country to burn off their Christmas dinner and be more active over the festive season. If every person took to the streets, fields or beaches after their festive treats, then families in England could walk a combined 50 million miles on Christmas day alone. But with a typical Christmas lunch of turkey and pudding clocking up almost 1,500 calories - over half of men's recommend daily calorie intake and three quarters of women's - Walk4Life, part of the Change4Life movement, is calling on families to bring back this Christmas tradition en masse. According to the British Nutrition Foundation a typical Christmas dinner is 1,470 calories"Thursday, December 18, 2008
The more you snore, the more calories you burn
A new study has found that the more you snore, the more calories you burn. Snoring is commonly linked to sleep apnea and other disorders, and is caused when airways are partially blocked. The study focused on 212 adults who all had these types of sleeping problems. An average person was found to burn about 1,763 calories each night. Those who snore while they sleep though can burn up to 1,999 calories on average each night. They found a direct link between snoring and calories burning, so the more you snore, the more you burn! The study has been published in the Archives of Otolaryngology - eCanadaNow
