Also, increasing rates of obesity are leading to a higher prevalence of one of its main comorbidities, type 2 diabetes, which stood at 8% in this year’s report.

“Those are really troubling figures when we think down the road about the future of cardiovascular disease in America,” Arnett told MedPage Today.

While 68% of adults are overweight or obese, more than a third (35%) are fully obese. For children, 32% are overweight or obese and 17% are fully obese.

Inactivity is high for both adults and children as well. A third of adults said they didn’t get any leisure-time physical activity, while 18% of high-school girls and 10% of high-school boys didn’t get 60 minutes a day of moderate activity over the course of a week.

Changing those behaviors is clearly a large challenge, Arnett said, but clinicians can also go after “lower-hanging fruit.” Particularly, high blood pressure — which accounts for 41% of cardiovascular disease mortality — should be targeted, she said.

Arnett added that high cholesterol would be another “low-hanging fruit” to target, as 14% of adults currently have uncontrolled high cholesterol, above 240 mg/dL.

Skin Care for Winter – Face Masks

As you enjoy the dipping temperature of the winter, pay a little attention to your skin as well. Here are 10 quick and effective face packs to keep your skin fresh and healthy.

Skin care in the winter

Winter calls for extra care for your skin. While the rest of your body is bundled up, your face is exposed 24 hours a day, and so it takes the brunt of the harsh climate most of all and requires additional pampering apart from the usual day and night creams.

Homemade face packs are simple to make and easy to apply. All you need are the ingredients from your fridge or larder; the fresher, the better!

10 quick face packs for the winter

1. Papaya pack – Cut a ripe papaya into pieces after removing the skin. Mash it with your fingers or a fork, apply on your face and rinse off after ten minutes with cold water.

2. Grape pack–  Mash some grapes into a pulp, apply on the face and leave on for a quarter of an hour. Then rinse off. Strawberries can also be used instead of grapes.

3. Milk cream (malai) mask – Collect malai from the milk, apply carefully on the face, avoiding eyes and keep on for about ten minutes. Rinse off, first with warm water, then cold water. Continue reading
