Obesity is a complicated public health issue that can be devastating on both the societal and the individual level. On one hand, it costs our economy millions and is a strain on our under-resourced health system. On the other hand, it is a psychological and physical burden to those who are acutely affected – individuals who inevitably face stigma at every turn, with undeserved overlays of blame and shame.
It’s long been known that exercise doesn’t help most people lose weight. So why should anyone trying to shed pounds still keep exercising?
New research has the answer. A study published in the journal Nature Metabolism found that people who combine exercise with dieting can double the metabolic health benefits of their weight loss.
The study found that men and women with obesity and prediabetes who worked out while dieting improved their insulin sensitivity twice as much as people who only dieted, even though everyone lost comparable amounts of weight.
