A major review of randomized trials analyzing the role that exercise can play in combating depression: bmj.com/content/384/bmj-2023… Summary: Exercise combats depression, and more exercise combats it more. The effects can be (at least) as large as pills. Please, look after yourself.

The only way ozempic/GLP-1s will have lasting efficacy is if one avoids muscle loss, which for now means fixing diet and exercise in parallel. With so few to spend, each calorie has to be used to power something useful in your body.

Keep hearing stories of people taking Ozempic and losing weight due to calorie restriction. But it’s not good calories. It’s 1000 calories of processed food. We need to be talking about lifestyle, education, nutrition, not just fixating on a cure all wonder drug.

The world would be a better place if we put more emphasis on harm prevention and less on solving problems only after they occur. This applies to climate change, human health, public safety, etc.

It is hard to name all the ways caregiving can impact a person, but here’s a few ways I've witnessed caregiving skills translate to leadership and business @FastCompany fastcompany.com/90771285/why…

Why caregiving sets you up for success as a business leader

If you've ever cared for family in need, you may recognize some of these traits in yourself.

NEW: 50yrs worth of data show popular hyaluronic acid injections (“rooster comb”) are barely more effective than placebo in helping w/ #osteoarthritis knee pain and stiffness. “We have enough trials already to come to a conclusion. We don’t need more.” statnews.com/2022/07/06/hyal…

Common injections don’t help knee osteoarthritis more than placebo, large data review finds

Despite decades of mounting evidence showing hyaluronic acid injections don’t help most osteoarthritis patients, the shots have become more widely used.

There are so many opportunities to re-imagine our relationship to fitness and exercise at all ages. We need to use the power of movement and functional fitness to help everybody age better (and lower health costs)... for beginners as well as those with different abilities

There are precious few on-ramps to exercise in America if you’re not naturally pretty good at exercising. I wrote about why that is, and why it should change. theatlantic.com/health/archi…

What the Fitness Industry Doesn’t Understand

A new generation of fitness instructors teaches simple skills that make a difference. Why is beginner-level exercise treated like a niche?
