Most of us have plenty of time to enjoy our looks and our youth before we start to worry about age spots and white hair, wrinkles, and saggy eyes. That wasn’t the case for little baby Bence, who was born in Székesfehérvár, Hungary, with a full head of stark white hair.

How much should I weigh for my height and age?

By: Silvia

This is a question I hear quite often. Do I weigh too much? How much should I weigh for my height and age?  Below you can easily find out with our handy calculator below!

Of course you could just look at yourself in the mirror and make your own judgement, but for health reasons it may be important to know what’s normal and what’s not for your age.

Then, if you find out that you are too heavy for your height and age, you can do something about it.

The Body Mass Index Chart

The Body Mass Index or BMI is generally used to measure human body fat based on an individual’s weight and height. Body mass index is defined as the individual’s body weight divided by the square of his or her height.

The below graph shows what the normal measurements would be (both in pounds and kilograms). The aim of course is to end up in the normal range!

Measure your BMI

Just enter your age, sex and height and you will automatically discover in which range you are.

Is this information reliable?

In most cases, your BMI score will give you an easy and quick indicator of your “fatness” or “thinness”. However, the results from the BMI test are not always accurate and should not be relied upon as an authority for medical diagnosis.

Some people tend to have a lot of muscles (which tend to weigh heavier) and for those people a completely wrong BMI range could result.

Your BMI score will, however, give you a good indicator and if you have any doubts or concerns, see your physician.

How important is a healthy weight?

A healthy body weight is not just about looking good, it is actually very important for your overall wellbeing.

Being overweight puts you at risk of many chronic and potentially lethal diseases, like high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, stroke and gall bladder disease to name but a few.

Being underweight is just as unhealthy and can lead to a number of health complications, some of them life-threatening. Have a look at some of the comments below, where myself and others give suggestions on how to help with this.

So do the test and find out how much you should weigh. And if you’re overweight or underweight, I hope that you will take the time to do something about it to optimise your health. It is well worth it!

I now believe that sugars are the main culprit for excess weight so I wrote about how to quit sugar. Sarah Wilson has an excellent 8 week programme to help you quit the habit of eating sugar.

Want more convincing that sugar and carbohydrates are the main culprits to your weight gain then read how to lose weight through cutting carbohydrates.

For more articles on this topic and to learn how I have managed to keep a steady and very healthy weight throughout my life, you can check out my article on how to lose weight with healthy eating and drinking habits or read my husband’s 26 rules for losing weight without diets.

If you are happy with your extra weight or cannot get the pounds off then I have a very good article from Georgette on how to dress when you have curves.

Raw milk cheese linked to two listeria deaths in US

Raw milk cheese linked to two listeria deaths in US

Two people have died and four more have fallen ill following an outbreak of listeria linked to recalled cheese in several eastern US states.

Officials say it was probably caused by a soft raw milk cheese called Ouleout from Vulto Creamery in New York state.

The cheese was stocked by a Whole Foods shop in Fairfield, Connecticut, and may also have been available in specialised cheese shops.

The creamery recalled several soft cheeses on Tuesday.

Six cases of listeria have been recorded in Connecticut and Vermont, where the deaths occurred, as well as in New York and Florida.

The people infected range in age from less than a year to 89, and five of them are female, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says. All six were taken to hospital and the identity of those who died has not been released.

Listeria bacteria can occur in raw milk and foods made with it, and can survive refrigeration. The bacteria are killed by cooking and pasteurisation.

Vulto Creamery said it was working on recalling the affected cheese.

The company says it makes small batches of handmade cheese using raw milk from local dairy farmers. Its founder started out by making cheese in his apartment in Brooklyn.

Vulto describes the Ouleout cheese as a “semi-soft washed rind cheese” made from unpasteurised milk that tastes “pungent and meaty”.

Raw milk is milk from cows, goats, sheep or other animals that has not been pasteurised – the process of heating the milk to a specific temperature for a specific period of time to kill bacteria.

Some consumers say raw milk has more flavour and makes better cheese. Others choose unpasteurised milk as part of a broader shift away from processed foods, which are increasingly seen as unhealthy.

However the CDC says raw milk presents one of the biggest risks to consumers, who may face “many days of diarrhoea, stomach cramping and vomiting” and in rare cases kidney failure, paralysis, chronic disorders and even death.

The bacteria in raw milk can be especially dangerous to those with weak immune systems, older people, pregnant women and children, the CDC says.

Raw milk products are illegal in 20 US states, can be obtained from farms in 25 states and are available in shops in 13 states. EU countries make their own laws but products made with raw milk must be labelled. About a fifth of French cheese is made using raw milk. In the UK, the sale of raw cow’s milk is banned in Scotland but products made from it can be bought. Raw cow’s milk can be bought from producers in the rest of the country.

Diabetes kills 3.4 million people every year: WHO

Nearly 350 million people worldwide have diabetes, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

The United Nations health agency estimates that 3.4 million people die of diabetes every year, and almost 80 per of the deaths occur in developing countries.

Tarik Jasarevic is WHO spokesperson in Geneva.

"WHO projects that diabetes deaths will increase by two thirds until 2030. It is a chronic disease but it can be reduced very much by having appropriate lifestyle, reduction of use of alcohol, quitting to smoke, having a healthy diet and physical activity. So it is getting bigger and countries are aware of it." (Duration: 17")

World Diabetes Day is observed on 14 November to raise global awareness of the disease and how to prevent it.

It marks the birthday of Frederick Banting who, along with Charles Best was in 1922, instrumental in the discovery of insulin, a life-saving treatment for diabetes patients.
