Summary |
Power Tonic
Most Americans work in a profession that requires little more than sitting at a desk or computer where the only vigorous physical activity that might happen in a work shift is taking the stairs instead of the elevator. Add to this fact that we drive everywhere instead of walking, our leisure activities usually involve a television or computer, maybe a theatre (complete with that heart attack in a bucket--theatre popcorn). The conveniences of modern society have lulled our culture into sedation and chronic health problems related to excess weight. Overwhelming evidence points to exercise as the one way off the slippery slope of health decline but still more than 60 percent of American adults do not make the choice to exercise enough to make a difference. Twenty-five percent of American adults do not exercise at all. With just 30-minutes a day of moderate activity a person can enjoy important health benefits. If weight loss is a goal, more intense exercise is needed for longer periods of time, which will not only assist in weight loss but will cause even greater health benefits.
There is exercise equipment that is manufactured for convenience and efficiency and then there’s “exercise” equipment that’s manufactured to earn a buck, or pound in this case, off beguiled consumers.

Power Tonic is a piece of equipment that egregiously claims that a few minutes a day on their vibrating machine will tone your body. The machine, that looks like a pogo stick sends vibrations at 2000 cycles per minute to the muscles. How those vibrations get to those muscles could not be determined by a youtube.com advertisement. Details, details! All you supposedly have to do is step on the plate of the machine and turn the dial to the speed that suits you.

| Conclusion |
|
Diet and exercise are the yin and yang of a healthy lifestyle, not to mention weight loss. A few minutes on a vibrating contraption does not trump consistent, moderate aerobic exercise that is sustained for at least 30 minutes every day will empower a person with physical energy. Walking seems the most reasonable and affordable alternative for most of the population. A healthy diet that consists mainly of fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains with controlled amounts of dairy, protein and fats will cause the body to function efficiently. Hydrating the body with at least 6-8 glasses of fresh water every day works to cleanse the toxins from the digestive system. You can count on this science! There are also appetite suppressants and thermogenics that show promising results that can assist a person who is already disciplining themselves with calorie control and exercise.
