How to use "On balance" in context?
On balance, the benefits of exercise far outweigh the risks. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that regular physical activity can prevent coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, some types of cancer, and unhealthy weight gain. Exercise also improves mood and cognitive function. Injuries have been shown to occur in about one-tenth of one percent of Americans who regularly engage in vigorous physical activity, and the vast majority of these injuries are minor. The most common and serious injuries from exercise are from over-working muscles and over-reading endurance levels.
