Getting lots of exercise and healthy foods is doing so many things right that you get weight loss, a good immune system, more strength and energy and all around better health. The serious obesity and chronic disease situation in the US the last few decades has to be mainly from the lack of the above, with a big finger pointing at all the so-called free sugars being added to almost everything.
I think it is massively appropriate that the initials for the Standard American Diet spell SAD
protip:
When shopping, stay (mostly) off the aisles, the good stuff is around the perimeter of the store in most groceries: Produce and meat are really all you need, and frozen veggies can, believe it or not, be better than fresh, IF no bad stuff is added (I'm fat now because I been shopping in the wrong part of the store
)
you'll save time and energy, and eat better
