What is a good healthy lifestyle?

I think that most people would agree that healthy living isn’t just about having a balanced diet-it’s about exercising and keeping fit, too. But to be in peak condition we also need to exercise on a regular basis. That means going for a walk at least three times a week or doing some form of gentle exercise. In addition, being healthy also means having an active mind, so we need to stay mentally active by keeping our minds engaged. Reading or doing a crossword puzzle or maybe making time to socialise with friends and family are all activities that can help to keep our minds active.

Why is a healthy lifestyle important?

First of all, from a healthy diet we get the essential vitamins that are necessary for growth and cell repair as well as energy for our daily activities. On top of that, regular exercise not only improves our fitness level, but it also helps to keep our heart healthy and so prevent heart disease and related illness. Finally if we keep our minds active throughout life, it can help ensure that in old age we don’t experience mental decline. 

How do I start a healthy lifestyle? 

It doesn’t take much to start living more healthily. Sometimes it’s just about making better choices. To get fit, for example, you could walk rather than drive short distances or do a simple workout routine at home, two or three times a week. When it comes to eating a healthy diet, you could choose a salad instead of chips to accompany a meal and maybe cheese and biscuits rather than a sweet dessert. These are all good ways to bring about small changes to your lifestyle. Later on, you can be more ambitious, such as taking out a gym membership or making bigger, more permanent changes to your diet, when you’re ready. 

 What are 5 healthy lifestyles? 

I’ve already mentioned some aspects of healthy living. The most basic of course, is eating healthily-that’s to say, lots of fruit and vegetables, daily, as well as a varied diet that includes, meat, fish and eggs. Then of course, another way of keeping healthy is to exercise regularly, doing 20-30 minutes of walking each day or even going on a run, if time permits. It is also very important to maintain a healthy body weight. If you exercise and eat well, then you are unlikely to put on weight. Finally, two other healthy lifestyles are not drinking too much and of course, not smoking at all. 

 Why is it important to exercise? 

I briefly mentioned earlier how exercise is good for overall physical fitness. When you are fit, you are less likely to become ill with heart problems or suffer serious illness. In addition, exercising affects your mood, giving you a more positive view of life. Another reason why it pays to exercise, is because it improves your concentration and reduces stress. Lastly, exercisg outdoors or at a sports centre can be a good way of meeting people and it can also have a beneficial impact on our social life.
