Fight NCDs with exercise

The rise of NCDs has been driven primarily by four major risk factors: tobacco use, physical inactivity, the harmful use of alcohol, and unhealthy diets.

Everyone is aware of how important it is to exercise on a regular basis because an active lifestyle protects the individual from the debilitating effects of NCDs.

Daily physical exercise that may include walking or running briskly, cycling, zumba or resistance training all aid in strengthening the heart muscle and improving blood flow.

The next time you don’t feel in the mood to get up and exercise, all you need to do is to focus on the benefits that are derived from engaging in physical activity. You will be drastically reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke and your blood pressure will also improve. You will live a better quality of life and age much more healthier as exercise reduces the possibility for an older person becoming physically disabled.
