Alive! for Individuals Take the Alive! tour.

 

"By the end of the 16-week study, which was conducted by Kaiser Permanente and NutritionQuest and funded in part by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, participants who received the physical-activity e-mails [from Alive!] increased their exercise regimen by an hour a week more than the control group had. And participants who focused on a healthy diet reduced the saturated and trans fats they consumed by more than 1 g day."
