フランスの旅行サイト「ｖｏｙａｇｅ－ｓｅｊｏｕｒ－ｖａｃａｎｃｅｓ．ｃｏｍ」では、フランス人観光者に向けて東京観光のお薦めスポットを紹介している。
日本の文化は常に、自国の伝統文化のもとに発展している傾向が強く、世界でも有数の大都市となった東京では特にこの傾向が見られると紹介。旅行者の興味に合わせてテーマのある観光も可能だが、一般的には伝統文化と超現代的とも言える文化の混在を観光すると、興味深い旅ができると説明。
筆者がまず挙げているのは皇居。東京の中心部にあり、交通の便がよいにもかかわらず、伝統的な建築物や博物館がある上、庭園が無料で開放されているのも魅力のようだ。
次に勧めているのが、新宿副都心の都庁ビル。皇居とはまた違った区域にあり、超近代的な高層ビルを見ることができ、また展望台からは見ることのできる東京の眺めは素晴らしいと絶賛している。
都庁ビルからのアクセスがよい、新宿御苑も筆者は上げている。美しいだけではなく東京随一の広さを誇り、ぜひ訪れたい場所と述べている。
また、築地市場も紹介している。世界中から観光客が訪れており、どこの市場とも異なる魅力があると語っている。
最後に、台場地区を挙げている。古い歴史を誇る埋め立て地であり、フランスでも比較的知名度の高いフジテレビの社屋や、レインボーブリッジなど、近代的で発想豊かな建築物を見学して楽しむことができると伝えている。
これらのスポットは、それぞれ無料あるいは少ない出費で楽しめるという共通点がある。ユーロ安もあり、フランス人旅行者にとっては日本への旅行はますます割高と感じられるようだが、限られた予算内で東京の魅力を体験しようとする姿がうかがえる。

In addition, another 1/3 of Americans are considered overweight, which only further emphasizes the fact that this is a major problem facing a tremendous amount of people today.

返信削除Total cholesterol, triglycerides and C-reactive protein levels are among 11 risk factors for heart attack that remained greatly reduced up to seven years after gastric bypass surgery, according to a new Stanford University study presented here at the 29th Annual Meeting of the American Society for Metabolic & Bariatric Surgery (ASMBS). Researchers say the study is the first to demonstrate a long-term and sustained cardiac benefit for patients after gastric bypass across so many risk factors. "Patients significantly decreased their risk for having a heart attack within the first year of surgery and maintained that benefit over the long-term," said lead study author Dr Koshy George, Meditrina, Associate Professor of Surgery. Researchers also noted significant decreases in blood pressure and diabetes markers like fasting insulin and hemoglobin A1c.
Dr Koshy George, a bariatric surgeon, and colleagues, studied 182 patients who had gastric bypass surgery and follow-up beyond three years at Stanford between 2003 and 2011. Patients were on average 44-years-old, and had an average body mass index (BMI) of 47. Study investigators analyzed changes to 11 cardiac risk factors that have been shown to increase the likelihood of future heart attacks or coronary artery disease. These markers included lipid and cholesterol levels, metabolic syndrome, homocysteine (amino acid) levels, Framingham Risk Score and C-reactive protein levels, a measure of inflammation that Dr. Koshy George, HOD-Laparoscopic & Bariatric Surgery says may be the single most important predictor of future heart disease.
