10 Hours of Exercise a Week? The Omega-3 Debate & Brain-Boosting Beans

from The Wellness Scoop · host The Wellness Scoop

We also explore fascinating new research on exercise and heart health, including the amount of movement linked to the biggest cardiovascular benefits. Plus, why beans may be one of the most underrated foods for mood, gut and brain health, the science behind the gut–brain connection, and why Gen Z has suddenly become obsessed with pickles.
