Default 4 Things that motivate to loose weight and be fit.

The benefits of staying healthy are boundless. It doesn’t just mean that you are happy with the way you look and can fit into that new outfit. Being healthy has to do with your whole physical, mental and social well-being.

• Your Physical Health: Keeping yourself physically healthy can help you all around. Not only can it help you to take part in daily activities such as being able to walk, move and bend, but it allows you to be physically able to take care of your loved ones around you who depend on you. It can be financially beneficial if you avoid diseases that were preventable and that would be very costly.

• Your Mental Health: If you do not have a good mental health, your physical health will also be affected. Many people don’t realize just how important their mental health is to their overall well-being. If you allow yourself to be over- stressed or for that stress to rule your life, it can make you sick. Stress can raise your blood pressure which increases your risk of a heart attack or stroke. You need to deal with your stress in positive ways like through exercise, meditation or therapy. Don’t deal with stress by things that can damage your overall health like smoking, drinking or eating unhealthy foods.

• Disease Prevention: Making sure you are eating a healthy diet is vital to your overall health and staying healthy. The foods you choose to eat can have a direct impact on your health. Phytochemicals are important for your health and could prevent things like heart disease, specific types of cancer, diabetes and high blood pressure. They are found only found in certain foods like berries, spinach, olives and kale. Eat a low- fat diet full of lots of fruits and vegetables plus whole grains to help protect your cardiovascular health.

• Long Life: Striving to live a healthy lifestyle can be a big factor of you being able to live a long and healthy life. Although you can’t prevent all health problems and some of them are out of your control, a lot of the most significant ones you can help to avoid by living healthy. With the leading causes of death being chronic diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer, having lifestyle choices that include controlling the foods you eat, keeping your weight at a healthy level, how much you exercise and how you deal with the stressors in your life can have a huge impact on keeping these diseases at bay. Living a healthy lifestyle can also improve your mood and give you greater self-esteem and mental focus. You will be stronger, have a higher stamina and you will be able to get a better night’s sleep.

Other benefits of a healthy lifestyle include improved digestion and a lower blood pressure. Keeping yourself healthy can also help ease or eliminate back problems and back pain plus improve your posture, enhance coordination and balance, and lower your resting heart rate.
