Exercise Advice From Physicians
A survey of primary care physicians in the US showed that only 38% of family practitioners and 48% of internists advised more than 60% of their patients about the benefits of aerobic exercise. Advice regarding strength training was provided even less often. (Clin J Sport Med, Jan. 2000)

Today's Featured Topics



Energy Gels
In the beginning, athletes had sports drinks like Gatorade. Then, energy bars such as PowerBar were what serious endurance athletes used. Today, athletes and others who want quick energy during exercise now have another sports nutrition option: energy gels. Read our review on these products at: "Energy Gels"

Do You Read Food Labels?
The labels you see on packaged foods are a result of then-FDA commissioner David Kessler's efforts to prevent orange juice manufacturers from calling their product "fresh" if it wasn't. Yep, that's how it started back in the 70's. Since then, food labels have been revised several times. There's a lot of useful info there, if you know how to interpret it. Learn more about it at: "Food Labels"

Find an Exercise Partner
One of the best ways to ensure you exercise regularly is to find an exercise partner. Running, weight-training, cycling are all more enjoyable if you do it with someone else. Get more ideas in: "Find An Exercise Partner"
