How to stay healthy and fit
Many studies have shown that almost 60% of adult deaths comes
from diseases like cancer or strokes, although these maladies
could have been prevented. If you're a smoking teenager, chances
are very big to get a heart disease or stroke when you'll be
older. So in that case, I would suggest you try to avoid any
kind of cigarettes, to practice sport, to say no to alcohol or
any kind of drugs and to always have safe sex. It is also
strongly recommended to pay the doctor a visit more often for
different tests, such as measuring your blood pressure and
checking your general health.
What you eat is also very important for your health. An obese
person is at risk for many diseases. The BMI (body mass index)
is being used to measure the proportions between weight and
height. A person considered to be overweight has a body mass
index above 95%, but for example, an athlete can also have a
high BMI without being overweight. The explanation could be that
the body has extra muscle tissue, but no fat at all. The body
begins to gain weight when it's overfed, that means when it
receives more calories than it needs, or than it burns off.
Obesity means stress for the body, health and mind. Obese people
feel depressed and there is more likely for them to eat to cure
this depression than to run or swim. So, the key in avoiding
obesity is to have an organized life program, respect your body,
to exercise everyday, to try to eat healthy and to avoid
tobacco, alcohol or drugs.
It's very important to teach yourself to eat only what's good
for your health, because, after all, you're eating to stay
alive, not staying alive just for the taste of food. Even though
you're not a
sporty person, you should try to find an activity
that you enjoy to mix it somehow with a bit of sport. For
example, if you feel to relax yourself, take the bike and go to
your favorite place: a lake, a forest, a park instead of
watching TV and being tempted of eating in front of it. Spend
more time outside, in the nature rather than staying at the
computer, playing some game that instead of relaxing you, will
make you more tired. Read more about ways of staying healthy, it
will improve your knowledge and most importantly: a healthy body
needs a healthy mind!
