Have you ever noticed how focused much of the health and wellness industry seems to be these days on numbers?
This is a "good" number while that is a "bad" number, we're told. We are bombarded with numbers in the news, on television, from magazine articles, newspapers, health publications in print and online... numbers, numbers and more numbers.
For instance, a commercial showcasing someone's weight loss starts by highlighting the number of pounds he or she lost. A magazine article will promise to tell you how to lose a certain number of pounds in 3 or 7 or 30 days... more numbers.
