The Four Hour Body is the new book by Tim Ferriss where he tries to get you to transform your health status by doing as little as you can to make a big change. His self-experiment studies on his own health are his inspiration for the different topics covered in his book like how to loss fat by using ice, best sleep machines, how to make muscle quickly etc…

I recently came across this video with Dr Oz of Oprah Winfrey TV show fame talking about handbag weights on women’s health. Dr Oz quoted a survey study done by the American Chiropractic Association on the weight ladies carry in their handbags. In the UK a similar research study has been done by department store, Debenhams. See what Dr Oz says about the weight of a woman’s handbag and how she carries it can affect her back in his show “Handbag Hazards”. Also find out what the average weight of a UK woman’s handbag is and how it has changed over the years by 100%.
