In less than ten years I ran 21 marathons. On top of enjoying the running friendships and fun destination marathons, I was convinced that the health benefits were undeniable. Then I started to hear about “the bell curve” in exercise. Clearly being a couch potato was bad for my health, but could excess exercise be equally dangerous?!?
What is healthier...a protein bar, fruit bar, granola bar or a chocolate bar? When we look at the sugar content and nutritional benefits of the bars we believe to be a great "grab-and-go" option we might want to reconsider what we choose.
