In an ideal world, we’d all eat healthy foods, exercise regularly and prioritize our mental wellbeing. But sometimes that’s easier in theory than in practice.
According to a recent study, only 2.7 percent of American adults hit all four key metrics of a healthy lifestyle, which include eating well, maintaining a healthy body fat percentage, exercising and refraining from smoking. And while physical activity guidelines suggest that we should all get 150 minutes of exercise per week, it looks like less than half of all American adults are actually meeting that goal.
