In the first study to rigorously track the movements of preschoolers, scientists found that the average 3-year-old is physically active for just 20 minutes a day, well short of the recommended hour a day for that age.
In The Lancet, a respected British medical journal, a study published this month, scientists from the University of Glasgow in Scotland recruited 78 children. Each 3-year-old wore an "accelerometer," a matchbox-sized monitor clipped to the waistband, for a week.
The device, worn from the time the children woke up until they went to bed, gave minute-by-minute readings of the children's pattern of physical activity and the number of calories burned.
The toddlers were burning about 1,300 calories a day — less than the 1,500 calories recommended.
While the problem is one of an imbalance of calories eaten and burned up, experts believe the main reason is that children are not getting enough exercise.
"There are really only two possibilities, reduced activity or increased intake. None of the dietary assessment data indicate that children are eating more. Adolescents may be eating more but young children are eating less," said the study's leader, John Reilly, a physiologist at the University of Glasgow.
"A 3-year-old, 25 years ago was eating 25 percent more than a 3-year-old today," he said. "But physical activity levels have dropped quite dramatically over the last 15 or 20 years."
In the study, the children were spending between nine and 10 hours of their waking day hardly moving at all.
"They may well have been doing a bit of fidgeting, they may have been speaking to their parents or among themselves, but they were just not moving enough to put up the number of calories burned beyond what it would be if they were just resting or sleeping," Reilly said.
The children spent 20 minutes a day in moderate to vigorous activity — the type of activity that would get them feeling slightly warm and slightly out of breath, such as running around, walking to keep up with an adult and most types of outdoor play.
All-day television and recorded videos are a major culprit, Reilly said. Outside the home, children are also much less active than they used to be.
"Many more journeys are made by car and among the 3-year-olds, a fair number of them are being taken around in strollers when they could arguably have been walking," Reilly said.
.
The dangers of a sedentary childhood go beyond obesity, experts said. More active children tend to be better behaved and scientists suspect that more active children learn more effectively, perhaps because physical activity is a stimulus to brain development.
"The increasingly sedentary nature of U.K. children is not unique and is being seen in most countries around the world," said James Hill of the Center for Human Nutrition at the University of Colorado.
Small changes in behavior are all that is needed, said Hill, who was not connected with the study.
In the days before videos and TV, young children didn't sit for hours staring at the wall, Reilly said. "They were perfectly capable of finding other ways to amuse themselves. They had imaginations. They still have imaginations," he said.
Many results on tests done in the United States and around the world reveal the same thing.
The bottom line: Our kids need more exercise. How can you make that happen? Give them an exercise program that is easy and fun.
Just like you and I they need something that is easy and fun to do or they simply won't do it.
This is where Life Lift and the Oxygen Zoo come in.
If adults like you and I are so crazy about Life Lift and have been able to stay with it for years then doesn't it make sense that our children will feel the same way. I know that many of you have been doing Life Lift for years. I have been doing it for well over 20 years now so I know how easy it is to stick with it.
They need something that feels good too. They need something that feels fun while it is making them stronger and healthier. There is no reason for our children to be obese. There is no reason for them to have to grow up battling the bulge.
If your children are going to watch a video, give them one that is healthy for them as well as entertaining. Over the past few years the testimonials from both parents and doctors for the Oxygen Zoo video have been wonderful but I felt the video could be a little more fun so I added animated animals working out at my side to demonstrate the positions in the video. When I got the finally proof I could not stop grinning. These animals turned out so enchanting and adorable that I completed a whole workout with the video with a smile on my face.
The new Oxygen Zoo video now has animated animals and a 32 page book with coloring book pages, goal setting pages and fun question and answer pages. I added the coloring book pages and the goal setting pages so your child could become more active in the process of taking care of his or her own body. This book has positive messages to build self-esteem along with healthy habits for a lifetime.
Go to http://www.oxygenlift.net to see a picture of the animals. You will find the link there for you to order your own copy of this wonderful video.
We will be adding water bottles and T-shirts soon too. Don't miss the fun slogans you can wear to show off your enthusiasm for your own healthy body.

It has been proved that nuts in general provide more than twice the energy furnished by meat and fish. They are also richer in proteins.
The Harvard heart letter published by Harvard Medical School, noted various health benefits of nuts.
Nuts have a unique nutrient composition that could favorably affect Heart disease risk factors and interfere with the development of plaque in the arteries.
The fats in the nuts can lower cholesterol and improve the ratio between ldl and hdl Cholesterol. By lowering your Cholesterol you will lower your risk of having heart disease.
Almonds
Today I was thinking of how great I feel and I wanted to break down for you many of the reasons I feel I have gone from being a very unhealthy person as a child with no energy and a very poor immune system to being a woman who feels vibrant and alive and full of good health.
One of the things I realized it that I eat a lot of nuts. I think they must wonder about me when I go to the store and come out with so many kinds of nuts.
Go ahead...smile...yes..I am a nutty woman who loves to laugh and very glad for it.
Almonds are one of my favorite nuts. I buy the ones that have no sodium added. They are an excellent snack when you are feeling hungry and they are also very good for your health.

Wanted to let you know that I have lost 5 pounds. Haven't
measured inches yet, but I can tell by how my clothes fit
and how I look that inches have been lost. I will be
measuring this weekend. Also for the first time in my life I
had no PMS symptoms this month!
Thank you!

Hi Rashelle, my name is Lisa and I have just tried the cellulite cream and to be honest I was quite skeptical because I have tried everything possible on the market to lose this annoying weight and cellulite I have, and I am very surprised and excited about the results I have been having. I just started using it on Tuesday night and I haven't lost any weight but my fat percentage went from a 32.9 to a 31.7 % body fat in just 4 days! I am excited to see what I will be looking like in 2 weeks! I apply it every morning wrap myself in saran wrap and go for a 30 - 45 min walk and then come home and do the Life Lift tape, I have never felt better or more energized about working out , because I normally hate working out. This has been a true blessing.

Dear Rashelle,
Did the complete kit last night. Started with the aloe wash and the seaweed soap. I noticed an immediate improvement in the softness of my skin after showering. Then I applied the Night Magic and Saran Wrap with the help of my husband (he loved it!)
The parts of my body that were not wrapped ie. face, shoulders felt amazingly smooth, clean, and refreshed. I thought "what a soothing thing I am doing for myself!" I put a pair of tights over my Saran wrapped legs and belly and a warm terry night gown over the rest.
Kevin (hubby) and I laid in bed chatting, laughing and watching TV and I felt really wonderful. I did some LL breathing while laying there to work on my tummy and relax. The wrap felt warm and comforting.
Ok. Sleeping in Saran wrap was a new one for me! I was up by 6 AM took a shower and measured.
We are closing on a new home Thursday and have been packing to move a week from today. I couldn't find my last measurements and I didn't measure last night like I wanted to....BUT! I noticed a huge difference in the numbers (I remembered) especially around my waist, belly and upper thigh. Even my neck went down!
What a great feeling and a great product. I already told Santa Clause that I wanted a refill (and perhaps the cellulite cream) for Christmas!
Thanks again. I do know that with just LL so far I lost 5 1/2 inches prior to the wrap. THAT number I do remember.
Have a wonderful day,
Victoria Schehl
Finding Lifelift and Rashelle changed my World. I did not lose quickly when starting LifeLift like most others do; but I kept with it no matter what. Rashelle worked with me all the way. I had to be quite patient to wait to see my results; but I will say that I sure was feeling good about myself and that was success right there! And then one day I woke up and knew the inches were coming off; and measured and lost a great deal of inches. That is where all this began for my 'road to wellness'. I knew my body was changing. I would have a good inch loss; then needed to be very patient again before I saw another. I just kept remembering that this is going to be a very long road for me; and I needed to be kept motivated.
That's when the Body Wrap products came into my life. Oh my goodness! I still remember the first night I used Night Magic after my bath; as I was smoothing on the gel I just knew it would help me. The very next morning I was dressing and caught a glimpse of myself; and was shocked. My hips were smaller! I couldn't believe my eyes. I kept looking and was just amazed. I could actually see a difference and to someone my size; let me tell you, this is just what I needed.
I have come a very long way in my weight loss; with even further still to go. I was losing weight; very slowly while adapting to healthier life choices. I still do my LL breathing daily; eat 3 small meals and 2 snacks per day keeping my body fueled; and use the Herbal Body Wrap products quite often. Recently I had stopped losing weight again, and know that this is just my body; to stay patient; keep following my plan, and know that it will start to fall off again. And Guess What????? For the month of October I have dropped 10 (yes ten) pounds! How awesome is that?
I just wanted to write this since Rashelle has given us the gift of her special price for these products and share with you what a great compliment to each other that LL and the Body Wraps really are.
Take care all!
Wanda.
I recently restarted using the LL tape workout #1 and I purchased the
Night Magic Gel body kit. WOW! I am loving the results. I have lost
10 plus inches off my body since October 29th. I haven't seen any
weight loss, but from reading the information from Raschelle I realize
this is not important right now.
Years ago I lost 17 inches with LL and had my waist back to 23 inches.
I KNOW it works
I am so excited about the additional feature of the body wrap. I am
seeing great results with the products. It is nice to be doing
wonderful things for myself again.
