Being sedentary is the new smoking. It's THAT bad. Physical activity is as essential as the air you breathe. Paul and I discuss the MANY ways physical activity reduces immune dysfunction via its positive effects on mitochondrial function, gut health, hormone and thyroid balance, detoxification, etc. We also discuss the pitfall of overexercising and how too much exercise can backfire and make it much more difficult to lose weight. Move your butt or get a gut.
