Whether it's the holiday season or not, find out how many calories you burn, based on your activities, and how strenous they are. "Are you a bionic calorie burner or do you slink along at a slug’s pace? Ever wanted to know how many calories you burn while talking on the phone? Or during sex? Let MSNBC provide that motivational kick you need to get your exercise routine going," says MSNBC in the introduction to its, "Burning off the fat" calorie counter."

I test drove it and was a bit surprised at how few calories I burn. I guess that's because I'm basically a couch potato. Guess I need to watch how many calories I eat.

Treat The Flu With Red Wine?!

Updated June 24, 2023

---  the original post follows below  ---

Flu season is here in full force, so it was fun to see this article in the Wine Spectator magazine, "Red Wine Chemical Cuts Flu Risk - Quercetin reduces susceptibility to influenza, especially after exercise." Although the research was conducted in mice, I'm hopeful that there's some benefit to be found in humans. The research was published in the American Journal of Physiology—Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology. I got my flu shot several weeks ago and hope to avoid catching the flu. But if I do, know that I'll be swilling some red wine, cheers!

Promising Exercise Pill - I could be an exercised couch potato! (video)

I admit it, I'm a couch potato. But guess what, in the future I might be able to take an exercise pill, be a couch potato, and my body will act as if I've been exercising. Sweet! This MSNBC article makes me wish this drug was available now, "Exercise pill? Drug shows promise."
