hybrid

If you want to drive the most environmentally friendly or "greenest" vehicle, you need to think small or think hybrid. The hybrid vehicle typically achieves greater fuel economy and lower emissions than conventional internal combustion engine vehicles this is great for not only the environment but my bank account.

Skip the Diet Pop

Recent research has shown that artificial sweeteners in pop may interfere with your body’s ability to estimate how many calories you ingested, so you eat more than you need. In a new rat study, animals that ate fake sugar consumed more calories overall and gained weight compared to those that didn’t eat artificially sweetened treats. This is just one study, but it’s enough to make me want to kick the can habit. Need more .convincing? For every diet soda you sip daily, your risk of becoming overweight can rise by 37 percent, according to researchers at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. Now i know why im not fat never touch the diet pop.
