| 5 Reasons to Exercise It's not just about losing weight... If you're like most people, you start exercising with one or two goals in mind: losing weight, or shaping up. But there are many more benefits: 1. People who exercise live longer, on average, than people who don't. 2. Active people have a lower risk of dying from heart disease and stroke, and they're less likely to get high blood pressure. 3. The more active you are, the lower your risk of colon cancer. 4. The less active you are, the higher your risk of getting type 2 diabetes. If you already have type 2 diabetes, exercise can lower your blood sugar levels. 5. In people with arthritis, moderate exercise helps reduce joint swelling and pain and improves mobility. |
