Wellness Shot: Not Exercising Is Worse Than Smoking

My son was just asking me the other day "what if you just are really healthy, would you still have to exercise??" Well, a new study is answering that question. 

Yes, you still need to exercise. Turns out not exercising should be treated almost like a disease. The couch potato lifestyle leads to heart disease and it's totally reversible.

New findings, published Friday in the journal JAMA Network Open, detail how researchers at the Cleveland Clinic studied 122,007 patients from 1991 to 2014, putting them under treadmill testing and later recording mortality rates. Researchers found a clear connection between a longer, healthier life and high levels of exercise.
