This is what I said and my professor responded with this and I need help with what to say back.

I think the concise list of benefits of phyiscal activity could be helpful, but I also agree that some of the other parts might be confusing. I think this could be a helpful resource for the right person (adequate reading ability and maybe with a science background).  

If you could add or remove one thing from this resource, what would it be?

SCIENCE
HEALTH SCIENCE
NURSING
