We’ve all justified a deep dive into a big bag of chips or a pint of ice cream after a workout by telling ourselves we earned it. But did we really? The idea that spending a few extra minutes on the treadmill protects you from the consequences of dietary vices is a tempting one. Yet there’s little proof that an unhealthy diet can be mitigated by regular exercise — a theory recently tested by a group of researchers from Australia, the U.S., Italy and Norway. Using a large sample of British adults, the multinational team reviewed the impact of exercise and diet, independently and jointly, on all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease and several types of cancer.

The idea was to link the cause of death to baseline health records gathered 10 to 11 years earlier and gauge the impact of diet, […]
