Keeping Healthy

Keeping healthy is an important because if you are in good health you can do anything . However, if you have a health problem or if you have not had a physical checkup recently, you should check with your parents and your family doctor before taking part in any strenuous activity.

Being over weight is a common problem today. If you are top plump, or just plain fat then exercise can help you. A daily surplus of 100 calories can produce a 10 - pound weight gain in a year. But these surplus calories could be burned up by a 15 to 20 minutes daily walk, thus preventing any unwanted gain.

The best method of weight control is not let yourself get fat in the first place. Some people skip breakfast or avoid nourishing foods, in the mistaken belief that this will keep them slender. It is far better to eat properly and get plenty of exercise. Both are necessary for good health.

If you need to lose weight, do so gradually. A pound a week is about right. Ask your health teacher or your doctor about a safe diet. Follow it faithfully and exercise regularly. The pounds you lose will be a weight off your minds as well as your body.

In order to keep healthy you should live a happy life, eat nourishing foods, get plenty of exercise and sleep for eight hours every night.
