Fitness, Obesity and Lifespan
The Cooper Institute for Aerobic Research
in Dallas claims that a study of 22,000 men indicates it is fitness
- not fatness - that matters when it comes to prolonging life. They say
that unfit, lean men are more likely to die young than fat, fit ones.
This weight and fitness study conflicts slightly with other studies that
indicate the importance of body fat, but whether you are fat or lean,
it is important to take regular exercise for weight control and health.
Weight Loss Health Advice
Weight loss and health go hand in hand.
The healthier your body, the faster you lose weight. Which is another
good reason to exercise regularly and eat healthily. And it's another
good reason to avoid fad diets or weight loss methods (like weight loss
pills and supplements) that don't help us to develop good eating habits.
