Dear Friends : In my previous posts I have emphasized less oil , lesser salt and a plant based diet .
Today I want to discuss a free medicine without side effects .
Yes, it is #EXERCISE
Benefits of exercise
It can reduce your risk of major illnesses, such as heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and cancer by up to 50% .
Exercise is the only proven treatment for Fatty liver
Our health is now suffering as a consequence of reduced exercise .
There's strong scientific evidence that being physically active can help you lead a healthier and even happier life.
Research shows that physical activity can also boost self-esteem, mood, sleep quality and energy, as well as reduce your risk of stress, depression, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
What counts?
To stay healthy, adults should try to be active daily and aim to achieve at least 150 minutes of physical activity over a week through a variety of activities.
For most people, the easiest way to get moving is to make activity part of everyday life, like walking or cycling instead of using the car to get around.
Play any out door game regularly.
Walk faster, avoid going up by lifts, use stairs instead.
For any type of activity to benefit your health, you need to be moving quickly enough to raise your heart rate, breathe faster and feel warmer.
A modern problem
People are less active nowadays, partly because technology has made our lives easier.
We drive cars or take public transport for short distances.
We entertain ourselves in front of a TV or computer screen.
Fewer people are doing manual work, and most of us have jobs that involve little physical effort.
We move around less and burn off less energy leadlng to obesity
Sedentary lifestyles
Common examples of sedentary behaviour include watching TV, using a computer, using the car for short journeys and sitting.
such behaviour is thought to increase the risk of many chronic diseases, such as heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes obesity.
Previous generations were active more naturally through work and manual labour, but today we have to find ways of integrating activity into our daily lives.
Friends keep exercising and shun off your fat ..stay healthy.Have a good day !
