Fitness Watch

Fitness Watch is your site for making sense of fitness advice.
"Truth" has a shelf life.
The shelf life of "truth" is very short in the domains of fitness, health and well-being. The reason is that so much of what we are told is "true" is really baseless.
At Fitness Watch we separate fitness information from fitness noise.

Fat Young Adults at Greater Risk for Pancreatic Cancer

Kudos, fatsos.
"Excess body weight during young adulthood both increases the likelihood of eventually developing pancreatic cancer and reduces the average age of disease onset, researchers said."
Pancreatic cancer:
"Pancreatic cancer is hard to catch early. It doesn't cause symptoms right away. When you do get symptoms, they are often vague or you may not notice them. They include yellowing of the skin and eyes, pain in the abdomen and back, weight loss and fatigue. Also, because the pancreas is hidden behind other organs, health care providers cannot see or feel the tumors during routine exams. Because it is often found late and it spreads quickly, pancreatic cancer can be hard to treat."
Mmmmm.

Eat hearty.
