Default Are you apple shaped?

If so, you may benefit from exercise more than any other group! Many apples are insulin resistant, and some of those people have metabolic syndrome.
This is a really good article explaining how to overcome it:

In a nutshell, it says that regular exercise is the most effective way of controlling it, even more than metformin. So get out your walking shoes!

Thanks Jennifer, that was an interesting article. More of the same common sense - watch what we eat and exercise.
