Lifestyle diseases occur because of the choices we decide for our living.

Lifestyle is a way of living. It changes with time, habit, preference, and behavior of a person.

Work habits of people changes. It leads a person to spend more time in front of the screen, which results in less exercise and an unhealthy routine.

It is reversible. So, we can prevent it by taking appropriate measures in time.

10 Measures to prevent lifestyle diseases are:

1. Eating a healthy diet:

Eating a healthy diet is good. But who will tell us whether our diet is healthy or not?

Precisely, we can define a Healthy diet as food helps our body grow. And keep us healthy without showing any side effects.

Our lifestyle decides our eating habits. We usually eat junk food without knowing how much it affects our health.

So, let’s Say No to Junk Food. from now on.

We became so much busy fulfilling our dreams, meeting the deadline of work, studying for exams, and so on.

In a busy life, the first thing we miss is our meal.

To compete with this world, we lost ourselves in the new terminology like

Must incorporate Green and leafy vegetables in your diet.

Don’t eat much at a time. Eating at regular intervals(2 hours) is good.

Limit the use of packaged food, sugar products like chocolates, caffeine intake, and beverages.

2. Physical Activity:

If you love your body, you will include at least a physical activity in your routine. It can be anything like exercise, yoga, walking, etc.

It not only makes you active but also keeps the tension away. Even 30 minutes of exercise keeps you fresh, and you feel energetic all day.

Reasons because of which we miss morning exercise. These are:

Becoming a Party maniac,
Late-night work/study,
Late awakening,
Laziness and so on.

WALKING is the best exercise of all. We can walk anytime and anywhere at our convenience.

• Grab every opportunity to walk.
• Use stairs instead of the lift,
• And, go to nearby places without using vehicles.

You can perform yoga without any equipment, and it has no side effects.

Its postures help us reduce body weight, make us fit, and help us fight many diseases.

Meditation helps in concentration and increases mental alertness. 

Mental health is equally important. It keeps us calm during our hectic life. Therefore, meditation helps to lessen anxiety.

3. Say No To Addiction:

Here, addiction means doing something repeatedly. Even after knowing how much harm it creates to our health. We must know when to stop.

As we know, addictions like alcohol, smoking, chewing tobacco are harmful.

Being addicted to it consequently enlarges the probability of throat and mouth cancer. It also hurt the lungs.

4. Make sure you are not overweight or underweight:

A lot of lifestyle diseases occur due to being overweight and underweight.

For example – high/low blood pressure, obesity, malnutrition, stunting, wasting, etc.

Maintain your weight according to your age and height.

5. No medication without any prescription:

We often use medicines without the doctor’s prescription. Self-medication can be disastrous to us.

Therefore, must avoid medication without prescription.

6. Limit the use of Technology:

No doubt, gadgets make our life comfortable. But on the other hand, our bodies became sluggish.

We work on the desktop in the offices, during watching television, while studying we sit on the chair. We stick to a place for a long time.

The information we need is available on the internet, resisting our motion.

Online games are the substitute for many outdoor sports. Thus, this type of gaming culture invites many diseases.

As a result, Technology is a boon for our Mental Health but it detriment our physical well-being.

7. Get Regular Check-up:

Changing lifestyle, eating habits, surroundings creates pressure on the body.

Therefore, regular health checks up are a must. We can’t afford to ignore it.

At least go once to a doctor in a month.

8. Benefits of Vitamin-D:

Vitamin D is essential for the human body.

It increases our immunity system, provides strength to our bones and teeth, and protects us from TYPE 1 DIABETES.

9. Be a good Customer:

Today, the use of beauty products is high. Not every beauty product is beneficial to our skin.

Some of them contain harmful chemicals which cause diseases like skin cancer.

We continue to use them without knowing their ill effects.

Hence, be aware of these chemicals while purchasing them.

10. Be Happy:

We are solely responsible for our life. To take care of our health is our responsibility.

So, stay away from Stress, take a sound sleep, spend time with nature, spend time with friends and families, spend leisure time practicing your hobby.

Remember, lifestyle disease is a non-communicable disease. But can spread from one person to another in a competitive way.

So, don’t treat your body like a commodity or machine. Take care of it in every possible way.

You can lead a peaceful life only when your body will allow you to do so.
