NEW RESEARCH: Most US adults do not know how much physical activity is recommended. Help spread the word: Adults need at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity, which can be spread throughout the week. https://t.co/5g8eOJjYiP

NEW Research: Physical activity may help prevent death from flu or pneumonia, regardless of factors such as medical conditions and weight status. Data are from more than 575,000 people followed up to 22 years. https://t.co/LdX4dRDrNc #ActivePeople

Without meaningful relationships, we are not living our healthiest and most productive lives. DYK that lacking social connection can be associated with increased risk of disease, including heart disease and stroke? 1/2

Solid advice from the terminator for starting healthy routines:
"Write down three things you'll do each day. Start small. Walk, only eat real food, stretch."

[Arnold Schwarzenegger @Schwarzenegger]

You need to create a routine. Motivation only gets someone going for a little while, a routine lasts forever. Write down three things you’ll do each day. Start small. Walk, only eat real food, stretch. Mark them off every day, no matter what. After a month, make the goals bigger.

Definitely a step in the wrong direction...

Outrageous: Lunchables, reformulated, will now be part of the National School lunch program. Given what we know about ultra-processed food, this is sickening, both literally and figuratively. https://t.co/diD7j0zc1C https://t.co/HFdAXyhJdb

For vegans, vegetarians, or those just looking to reduce their animal protein consumption, tempeh is an excellent source of plant-based protein that also happens to be chock-full of probiotics -- these are bacteria similar to those in the gut, which promote health in many ways.
