Flat floors damage your body Walking on flat floors in shoes with heels limits the movement of the feet, which causes uneven pressure & weakening of the muscles. This can lead to constrained and incorrect postures as well as stress pains on the musculoskeletal system, which increase over time. A weak foot musculature is the main cause of: • Back pain • Knee- and hip damage • Vein disorders • Foot diseases such as hallux and heel spur • Numerous other complaints Walk yourself fit In the kybun shoe, standing and walking on the elastic, springy surface, distributes the weight evenly and allows the foot maximum freedom of movement. This protects the joints, trains the muscles and balances postures. Walking on the elastic springy kybun sole: • Allows a natural distribution of pressure on the foot • Protects the joints • Relaxes and relieves the back • Activates the leg and vein circulation • Trains the deep muscles Red areas Yellow areas Green areas Blue areas Excessive pressure. Leads inevitably to chronic strain reactions over longer periods Average pressure load. To avoid calluses, pressure points and provide relief. Low-pressure load. Foot soles are protected and put under less pressure. The distribution of the foot pressure should be as close as possible to 50:50 in relation to both the front and back andthe left and right areas. Compare the distribution between barefoot and wearing the kybun shoe and check how quickly the forces from compressed loads are absorbed.

Howe In- stitute. In "Rich Man, Poor Man: The Policy Implications of Canadians Living Longer" - the first study of long-term changes in longevity across earnings groups in Canada - authors Kevin Milligan and Tammy Schirle provide new ev-authors Kevin Milligan and Tammy Schirle provide new ev-authors Kevin Milligan and Tammy Schirle provide new ev idence on the incomes and life expectancy of Canadians. Increases in longevity have been brisk for Canadians, with both men and women experiencing longer lifes- pans past age 50 than the generations before them. With those extra years of life come some costs such as pensions, healthcare, and other age-dependent expendi- tures. According to the report, the highest-earning Cana- dian women outlive the lowest-earning women by three years. For men, the longevity gap between the highest and lowest earners is eight years, or more than 10 per cent of a lifespan. "We do not have evidence that the earnings-longevity relationship is causal - those with higher earnings may have higher education, different health habits, and other characteristics that drive their longevity more than the in- come itself," Milligan says. "However, longevity is a highly valued aspect of well-being, so its distribution across dif-valued aspect of well-being, so its distribution across dif-valued aspect of well-being, so its distribution across dif ferent types of Canadians matters." The report highlights that the gap in life expectancy between high and low earners in Canada has not grown over time and improvements in longevity are evident across all earnings levels. This result is in sharp contrast with evidence from the United States, where longevity growth has been concentrated in the top half of income groups. An analysis of American men by family income percentile finds a range of 14 years from bottom to top percentile, so the gradient in Canada is smaller than it is in the United States. "Our data do not allow us to draw conclusions about the causes of the earnings gradient and its uniform shift in Canada and why it is different from the United States," says Schirle. "Documenting the facts is an important first step, because these facts have important policy im- plications." As one example, the policy impact on pensions is di- rect. If those who are living longest are the ones with the highest annual pension benefits then the total costs of the pension payouts may be higher than expected. Moreover, differential longevity alters the net balance of pension contributions and pension benefits across high and low earners. Private annuity markets are shaped by the longevity expectations of different potential purchasers of annuity products. In addition, we should take note of how dif-products.

In addition, we should take note of how dif fering longevity of different groups of Canadians affect the value of public retirement income programs and well- being across society, say the authors.
