Is it a must to Exercise ?

My girl friends have been trying to get me to exercise MORE!

The craze started last year when one of them joined a gym downtown.
So why should we exercise??? Is it a "MUST" ??? I don't do much, just a little yoga, that's all. That's enough right ?
 
Anyway her gym instructor mentioned something interesting that we don't hear much of - autophagy.
Meaning when we exercise junk gets cleared from our cells. The thing about muscles, it’s really: “use it or lose it.” 

The astronauts were found to lose muscle at an alarming rate until NASA figured out how they could exercise in space.  Exercise improves circulation thus reduces all disease, improve your appearance and delay signs of aging.  It improves your strength and stamina, which gives you a better quality of life. Basically, you will look better and feel better.

Well, we all need motivation, not everyone has friends like mine:) You can write them down & place it where you sees it daily- on the fridge door maybe. Things like :You want a hotter body, you want both guys & girls staring at you, you want to be able to buy clothes off the rack. Or you just want to be able to move around even after you hit 70 …lol…

Well Just Do it OK?? But do start slow and work up gradually.  Consistency is key, and getting support makes a difference. For me, I'll stick to my yoga...haha....

Do you read nutrition labels when buying food ?

Do you read nutrition labels when buying food ?

A recent study says people who read nutrition labels are slimmer.
I go like ...REALLY?????
The problem is, most of what's written is in Greek....lol.... that's probably because I hardly understand what they say in those labels!
Most are in technical terms the percentages the scientific names etc... gives me a headache anyway. So how?

Take everything in moderation perhaps?
