South Carolina chiropractor Daniel Kehres says those trying to lose weight should look at how sumo wrestlers live.

Q: “Controlling my weight was a piece of cake in my 20s and 30s, but not anymore. Why does it seem so much harder now that I’m 50-something? Is there anything I can do to fight the middle-age spread, or is this a battle that all women my age are destined to lose?”

There is recent evidence that a chemical found in ordinary green tea, epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), may offer a bit of weight loss magic.
