Improve Your Health Through Increased Fitness Level and Proper Nutrition

Today's population is mostly living in a sedentary lifestyle. We sit out most of the day either at our workplace or at home. We spend our leisure times in front of the TV or a game consoles. Modern and fast way of life has forced us to use cars or public transportation where ever we go.

This has led to increased population that is over-weight or even obese. Our fitness level has dropped to a very low level, and we are unable to run for more than few hundred meters and a thought to take a walk to a grocery store is unimaginable to us because it would take too much of our energy.

One of the most negative side effects is the way it affects our health. Obesity has been declared as the number one health issue by the World Health Organization. Heart disease and stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, breathing problems and asthma are only some of the issues related with the obesity and fitness level.

Physical activity and proper nutrition are important to improve health and fitness:

Increase physical activity. A simple 30 minute walk every day can induce health benefits in just a couple of weeks and burn additional 100 calories every day.

Change your diet. This does not mean that you have to eat less, but you need to changesome habits. Eat three times a day and don't eat between meals. Avoid eating fried food,high fat and high sugar snacks, sugared drinks and sodas and serve portions of normalsize.

If you have decided to lose your weight don't do it too rapidly because you are risking a variety of health issues. It probably took you years to get to the level where you are now and it takes more than a few weeks to get where you want to be. Start with some simple forms of activity like walking, swimming or cycling. Don't try to conquer the mountains in the first week, but rather gradually increase the workout intensity.

Don't avoid or skip your meals so you consume fewer calories. Consuming too little calories will provoke your metabolism to switch on the starvation mode. It will start burning your muscle mass instead your fat so it can compensate on a sudden loss of calories. You will lose weight this way, but again, you are risking organ damage, which can affect kidneys, liver and heart.

If you are very obese or have known health issues I suggest that you visit your doctor first and ask for advice. Your life and health are not to be played with!
