MIT Study: Breaking a Fast May Pose Cancer Risks

When people start to eat after a fast it's important to avoid potentially cancer-causing foods. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌  ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌

Good morning!

Today's stories include a study from MIT showing that fasting may pose cancer risks—and whether you should worry about it. Also, we'll discuss the myth behind "no pain, no gain" and explore how to naturally stop burnout before it becomes serious.

Have a great weekend.

Bent-Over Row
The bent-over row is a great exercise for the upper back while also increasing lower back strength. Those with osteoporosis can safely perform it because it uses a hinging movement at the hips.

Step 1: Start in a standing position with your arms straight down while holding onto dumbbells or cans.
Step 2: Bend your hips forward at approximately 90 degrees with your knees slightly bent to relieve stress on your lower back.
Step 3: Slowly pull the weights straight up, then slowly lower them back down.
Step 4: This counts as 1 repetition. Try to perform 3 sets of 12 repetitions, adjusting the weight and number of repetitions as needed.

Alternatively, you can perform this exercise one arm at a time. If you find it somewhat stressful on your back, brace yourself on a chair or counter with your other arm.
