Obesity and Alcohol
 
I have been reading a great deal about health lately, and there is much information concerning health effects of drinking and obesity. I know everyone has heard for a long time that these two factors are closely linked to heart disease. Did you realize that there are strong links to many cancers? Esophogus cancer is usually deadly and is closely linked to both obesity and alcohol.
It may surprise you how close many of us are to being obese. Try searching for a body mass calculator! I have seen many overweight pilots, and I wanted to pass this on. Why don't you get on the net and start searching. Official sites like government cancer sites etc.
