I definitely agree about alcohol worsening depression and anxiety, ingridcarley. I've known people who've tried that route: but it just worsens things to the point of no return. Dealing with depression and anxiety is not easy, but it CAN be done. I do think treatments work and I do also know time he...

Losing weight tends to help all health problems.

A great post.

Definitely not eating junk food is vital for any weight loss diet. Vegan or not. So I agree with your post. I need to lose weight myself and do avoid junk food.

Reading is also therapeutic to me. Reading a book is very relaxing and makes me feel a lot better about ...

Diabetes can be genetic, I'm afraid. Plus, it is not always because someone is overweight. The odd sweet treat won't cause the condition BUT people with diabetes are advised to always be aware of their sugar intake. They will have to prick their finger to test their blood sugar levels.
