Beloved,
I wish above all things that thou mayest... be in health....
3 John 1:2
"If the myriad benefits of exercise could be bottled into a drug, it would be rightfully hailed as a "miracle" treatment.
---drastically reduces the chances of heart attack and stroke,
---lowers the odds of developing cancer and dementia,
---and boosts the immune system, shortening the duration of syndromes like the common cold, influenza, and COVID-19 as well as reducing their severity.
Unfortunately, hundreds of millions of Americans are unable or unwilling to take advantage of these real and tangible advantages.
This has consequences. According to a 2018 study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control, 8.3% of yearly deaths in nondisabled adults 25 or older can be attributed to inadequate physical activity. MBA students at the University of North Carolina (UNC) translated these preventable deaths into terms of life expectancy. They estimated that Americans' lack of exercise cost men 6.2 years of life and women 5.6 years." ZeroHedge
