Topic : Health
 People get sick through the coaction of several factors. That could be inheritary disposition, the environment, certain habits, various viruses and germs, and psychical factors. Habits and mental attitude can be changed, and to a certain degree the environment and infection risks can be also controlled (for example, through vaccination).
 What you can do to stay healthy is to pay attention to your nutrition, exercise to stay fit and adopt a sound mental attitude. Of course, you should also get rid of bad habits (if you have them), like cigarettes, alcohol, drugs and similar.

Exercise: Like with almost all things in life, it's important to be moderate. If you haven't been doing any exercise for a long time, you should anyway first check your health.

Benefits from exercise

The health benefits of exercise are known to most people, but most people are reluctant to undertake even moderate exercise, and they become immediately aware of their limited tolerance for physical work and the discomfort that it provokes. It takes several weeks of regular exercise to see an improvement in the capacity for effort and therefor to be a training effect.
Here are some of the benefits exercise brings with itself:
  • The immune system improves
  • Increased stamina
  • Meliorates the effects of age and chronic diaeases even coronary heart disease.
  • Reduced risk of injury
  • Improves joint movement and stability
  • Limits effects of degenerative joint diseases
  • Maintenance of bone mass and prevention of osteoporosis and fractures
  • Reduces risk of Coronary Heart disease and stroke
  • Prevention of mild to moderate Hypertension
  • Cardiovascular functions are enhanced by exercise
  • Non Insulin dependent diabetes can be prevented or delayed or better managed by exercise
  • Blood pressure becomes more stable
  • Mood, self esteem and memory in elderly improves

Nutrition: You probably already know about the importance of proteins, vitamins and minerals. Here are just a few notes about some other things:
Take you time when you eat. Make little breaks when you eat-this way you can better notice if you had enough (because the saturation feeling appears after 15-20 minutes). Stop eating when you are not hungry anymore (especially if you have weight problems). Eat only if you are hungry.

Mental attitude: Psychological problems and stress are very often the cause for all kinds of health problems, like high blood pressure, overweight, stomach problems, ulcers and so on. It's easier said than done, but the only real solution to that is to adopt a more relaxing and philosophical attitude towards life.
