CORRECTION
In our article last week, “A Healthier You,” we advised all readers to “exercise regularly, eat a balanced diet, and drink 28 eight-ounce glasses of water a day.” That should have been “8 eight-ounce glasses of water a day.” We apologize for any confusion or discomfort that may have been caused by this error.
