Bill Weir Undergoes Body Scan, Diagnosed With Heart Disease

Life Changing News for Bill Weir

ABC news anchor Bill Weir discovered that he has heart disease at age 44 as the result of a news story. It was noticed during a CT scan that Weir took part in for the story.

Amazingly, it is due in part to Weir’s workout routine – more accurately, his misconceptions about eating and exercise. Like most people, Weir thought that he could eat whatever he wanted, because his workout would reverse any damage done by the food.

Although a workout may burn the fat one consumes, it cannot, by itself, keep other factors of heart disease, such as cholesterol, in check.

In addition to that, the hour workout he did each morning, followed by 10 hours of sitting also caused the problem.

Weir now has an hourly alarm on his watch to remind him to get up and walk or move for about 5 minutes and has started eating more fruits and vegetables.
