Our population is now fatter than at anytime in history. About two out of three adults and almost a fourth of our children are either overweight or obese. High fat and sugary fast foods have become the norm while sedentary lifestyles further add to the problem. Obesity, which is directly associated with diabetes, cancer, heart attacks, and strokes, is now second only to smoking as a major cause of preventable death. Consequently, obesity-related illnesses are drastically increasing medical costs for companies around the world. Dr. Bunch will reveal the real reasons underlying the fattening of today’s population and offer a highly effective, no-nonsense approach to eating healthily and losing fat.

2. Heart Disease and Cancer: Reducing Employee Health Risks
A heart attack can come at any moment without warning and cancer is a life threatening disease that can ravish our bodies long before we have noticeable symptoms. Yet, did you know that almost all heart disease and many forms of cancer can be prevented? Although genetics are often an important factor, we can still work to better our lifestyle habits which we know play a significant role in our risks for these dreaded diseases.
While the aging process will bring with it increasing incidences of high blood pressure, heart attacks, strokes and cancer, the younger generations are not exempt. In fact, in a full-blown computer age where sedentary, couch potato lifestyles are becoming more the accepted norm, they are at even greater risk. Like investing in a retirement fund, companies must invest in their employees' health now in order to significantly reduce their risk of heart disease and cancer later in life.
Price: $250 VHS DVD Preview: Of all the diseases that can cause disability and lead to life-threatening complications, none are more preventable than Type II diabetes. However, you wouldn’t know this to look at the statistics. In 2004, over 20 million people in the US were diagnosed with the disease. It is predicted that today, 1 out of 3 people born in the US will develop Type II diabetes. The good news is that diabetes, one of the leading causes of blindness, amputation, and cardiovascular disease, can be controlled and prevented by changing dietary habits and avoiding sedentary lifestyles. Dr. Bunch will present the most common risk factors for this disease and describe the best methods that will effectively prevent and manage Type II diabetes.
Price: $250 VHS DVD Preview: 4. Back and Neck Injury Prevention
So many employees today experience painful and disabling back and neck injuries, that these disorders are now considered by companies to be the primary musculoskeletal disorders that lead to disability. The problem is that most employees do not understand that back and neck problems, more often than not, develop without warning. It is not unusual to hear someone say that their back gave out while bending over to put on their shoes or that they injured their neck while sneezing. Yet, we know that these every day events will not injure healthy backs and necks.
Like many types of illnesses today, back and neck problems develop gradually over time, often without symptoms. Dr. Bunch will explain the real underlying causes of these disorders and how traditional reactive medical approaches that address only symptoms rather than the cause are ineffective and often doomed to failure.
Price: $250 VHS DVD Preview: 5. Working Smart: Reducing Risks of Sprains and Strains
Joint, ligament, muscle and tendon strains, often referred to as soft tissue injuries, are common disorders in the workplace today, especially in the current aging generation. Painful sprains and strains that slow us down can lead to scar tissue, arthritic damage to the body, and serious disability. Dr. Bunch will describe how the human body needs to be maintained like a well-oiled machine and warmed up properly each day. This regimen, we will learn, becomes instrumental in slowing down the aging process by helping us preserve the integrity and health of our joints.
Dr. Bunch, using a valuable on-the-job stretching program, will describe how employees can prevent muscle imbalances and weakening of tissues that can increase their vulnerability to unnecessary sprains, strains and joint injuries through a greater understanding of key ergonomic principles. He will also discuss the effective medical management of employee soft tissue disorders.
Price: $250 VHS DVD Preview: Employees in all industries seem to be under more stress today than ever before. Unfortunately, stress is not just something we feel - stress has well known serious physiological effects on our health. Stress has been linked to accelerated aging, high blood pressure, artery damage, heart disease, cancer and many other illnesses. It is a great robber of the immune system and too often life itself. Stress increases incidences of illnesses and is directly associated with fatigue-related errors in decision-making and accidents on the job.
In this program, Dr. Bunch teaches us how to utilize proven relief methods to help reduce personal and job related stress by building natural defense mechanisms that can ward off its harmful effects.
