Engaging in physical activity can reduce pain and help to maintain mobility and independence for older adults with arthritis, but current exercise recommendations are often unachievable for this population. Now, however, a new study finds that exercising for just 45 minutes is enough to reap the benefits.
 
Researchers say that 45 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise per week can benefit older adults with arthritis.

First author Dorothy Dunlop, professor of rheumatology and preventive medicine at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, IL, and colleagues report their findings in the journal Arthritis Care & Research.

Arthritis is a term used to describe inflammation of the joints. Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, caused by "wear and tear" of cartilage that protects the joints. As the cartilage breaks down, pain, swelling, and joint movement problems may occur.

I watched a little Youtube video on a drink concoction that as supposed to magically burn belly fat. Drink it before you went to bed. But it only really worked if you followed that up with 30 minutes of morning cardio exercise. LOL
