Well thank you william Haskell! What happens when exercise GIVES you panic attacks and INCREASES depression? That's what it does to me and Fred.
According to William Haskell, exercise expert an Stanford University Medical School, besides helping to keep fit, exercise "improves the ability of insulin to enter cells, so it lowers the risk of diabetes. It also lowers the risk of heart disease by improving blood clotting mechanisms, lowering triglycerides, and raising HDL (good) cholesterol."
