Risky Business: horrific health habits of the American teenager

Being a teenager is hard enough without having to worry about the food pyramid every time your tummy rumbles, but the “freshman 15” is evidence enough that teens are doing something wrong.

New college students make lifestyle choices for the first time, which can be both exciting and scary. Unfortunately, most tend to abuse their freedom with less sleep, more alcohol, and fewer fresh fruits and veggies. A typical college diet seems to consist of ramen noodles, beer, and cereal (yuck). They are also prone to skipping meals and over-caffeinating.

Is exercise making you fat?

Get this: a number of recent studies have found that exercise isn’t as important in helping people lose weight as you hear so regularly in gym ads or on shows like The Biggest Loser.

How could the role of exercise be so wildly overstated? The problem is that while it’s true that exercise burns calories and you must burn calories to lose weight, exercise also has another effect: it can stimulate hunger. So working out causes you to eat more which in turn can negate the weight-loss benefits you accrued during your brutal spin class.
