JUST A HEALTHY THOUGHT!?





Don't get me wrong; but, is there such a thing as Health Warning Overkill!? I swear (yeah, a lot) that just about every damned commercial is either about weight loss, heart attacks, or the complications that diabetes can lead to (of which I am very familiar with!).
What I'm saying, is not to be construed as not keeping the public health conscious. No! What I'm saying is that if you're not a hypochondriac before watching the MANY commercials telling you what you might have, or what may end up killing your ass.... well!
What really boggles my mind is why can't they cut down on some of those costly commercials, and put that money towards finding the cure to the many diseases that plague our society. Anyway, maybe I'm going a little overboard with this issue, but after seeing this one commercial (at least five times within an hour) that asks: "Do you're legs feel heavy, numb, and tingly when you get up from your chair!?"
Yeah! I just had to express my thoughts.

You are right and the other things is that they tell you something is good or bad for you and a year later someone then says the opposite! The classic is margarine. It was our savior from the evils of butter now it is butters evil twin!

I really hate the Valtrex commercials b/c I know one day Zach is going to go, "Mom what are genital herpes?"

And don't get me started on the tampon commercials.
