Benefits of Activity


Here is a list of several of the benefits of activity:
  1. Strengthens bones and joints
  2. Reduces blood pressure
  3. Improves Blood glucose regulation
  4. Increases cardiovascular function and improves blood lipid profile
  5. Reduces stress and improves self-image
  6. Aids in weight loss / weight control
  7. Increases flexibility and balance
  8. Increases muscle mass and strength













Think back to my Okinawa post - those individuals who live longer because there lives are filled without stress and they manage a healthier diet... You don't have to kill yourself to be healthy. Just get in some activity, reduce your stress levels and treat your body to healthy foods!
