The Magic Formula

In this, the last episode of Fitness Rocks, we will review a study from the Archives of Internal Medicine about reducuing the risk of type 2 diabetes in people over age 65.  The study looks at the role of the basic lifestyle habits of regular exercise, a healthy diet, not smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and moderate alcohol consumption in preventing type 2 diabetes.  I have called this collection of lifestyle habits the magic formula because when combined these habits consistently are associated with the lowest risk of developing chronic diseases, like type 2 diabetes.
