Does exercise effect fat distribution in body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Exercise, along with a healthy diet can reduce total body fat and increase muscle mass. Walking, running, cycling, swimming, yoga, resistance exercises all improve body composition. Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, with adequate amounts of protein and limited carbs. Exercise 150 minutes per week. You will be happier and healthier. Thanks for trusting HealthTap!
