Reminder: Exercise AND Eat Right
New research has found that when some people increase their physical activity, they also increase how much they eat. For those of us who have found ourselves starving after sweating our butts off at the gym, this new bit of research is hardly enlightening.

Those who were both physically active and had a healthy diet were much more likely to survive through the follow-up period than the rest of the study group. Moral of the story?
