Now that you understand why running burns 50 percent more calories per mile than walking, I hate to tell you that it's a mostly useless number. Sorry. We mislead ourselves when we talk about the total calorie burn (TCB) of exercise rather than the net calorie burn (NCB).
Over time, what became widely known as the 'First Division Association' established a reputation for successfully representing the interests of senior managers and professionals in government. Given the public sector's fondness for acronyms, the moniker 'the First Division Association' evolved naturally into 'the FDA'.
Recently I spoke with representatives from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and it occurred that there is some confusion about what âregulationâ by the FDA means when it comes to dietary supplements. The term âregulateâ has various meanings. In a general sense, dietary supplements fall under the purview of the FDA â where there are regulations that pertain to labeling and âclaims.â However, when it comes to the measurement of safety and effectiveness â as prescription drugs must do â it is not the same.
