Diet vs Exercise: In the age-old debate of Diet vs Exercise for weight loss, which one wins? According to experts, diet wins 70% of the time when it comes to shedding pounds while exercise picks that remaining 30%. At times this is even lower - 80-20. To fast-track your weight-loss results, couple a healthy diet with regular physical activity. Exercise wins when it comes to keeping the weight off. To maintain prostate health through diet and exercise, focus on eating a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables (especially cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cauliflower), whole grains, and healthy fats, while limiting saturated fat, red meat, and processed foods; alongside regular moderate-intensity physical activity like brisk walking, running, swimming, or cycling to maintain a healthy weight and reduce inflammation. #BeAProstatePal #BlueRibbonKE #BlueRibbonActives
