POOR
DIETARY
HABITS
How are healthy eating habits
developed?
DIETARY HABITS
These are the usual choices

of food that people make.
POOR DIETARY HABITS
It is a habit of not eating

enough healthy food.
HOW TO DEVELOP GOOD DIETARY HABITS?
1. Knowing what you eat
2. Plan what you eat
3. Eating only for the reason to be “in” with peers is

unhealthy.
4. Eating to overcome rejection, depression or anxiety is

unhealthy.
5. Eating to cope up with feelings leads to eating disorders.

The nutrients from the food we put in our bodies give our cells
the ability to perform their necessary functions. Think of it as
planting a garden. If you are planting a tomato seed, ideally you
use the right soil and the right amount of sun for the best
success. However, if you use the cheapest dirt and don’t give it
enough sunlight you may still get a tomato, but the tomato may
not be the ripest, roundest, reddest, or tastiest tomato.
In other words, giving our bodies the right nutrients can help you
grow to a healthier version of yourself. Thinking about food from
this aspect goes beyond calories and good food versus bad food.
You need to focus on the foods you are putting in your body
versus the foods you are excluding.
SEDENTARY
LIFESTYLE
Effects of physical inactivity.
SEDENTARY LIFESTYLE
It is a lifestyle that occurs

when an individual lacks the
recommended level of regular
physical activity or if he/she is
physically inactive.
How does an inactive lifestyle affect your body?
When you have an inactive lifestyle,
● You burn fewer calories. This makes you more likely to gain weight.
● You may lose muscle strength and endurance, because you are not using your muscles as
much
● Your bones may get weaker and lose some mineral content
● Your metabolism may be affected, and your body may have more trouble breaking down
fats and sugars
● Your immune system may not work as well
● You may have poorer blood circulation
● Your body may have more inflammation
● You may develop a hormonal imbalance

WAYS TO PREVENT
LIFESTYLE DISEASES
1. Eat healthy food
-fruits, vegetables, whole grains,lean meat
and low- dairy products.
-Avoid food with too much sugar or fat, or
dine in at fast food.
-Eat desserts and delicacies in moderation
2. Do daily routines of physical activity

-include physical activities into your daily
routine
3. Do not smoke
-gaining a little weight is lesser risk than to
keep smoking
4. Drink moderate amounts of alcohol
-two average-sized drinks daily for men; one for
women
5. Manage stress
-make time to unwind
-take care of yourself
If you have been inactive, you may need to start slowly.
You can keep adding more exercise gradually. The more
you can do, the better. But try not to feel overwhelmed,
and do what you can. Getting some exercise is always
better than getting none. Eventually, your goal can be to
get the recommended amount of exercise for your age
and health.
CHANGE YOUR THINKING!
1. Stop comparing yourself to others.
2. Aware of how hungry or full you are.
3. It’s not about the diet;it's more of the
routine.
4. Be determined that you are going to improve

your health.

mental, and social well-being." Healthy living is
the steps, actions and strategies we use to
achieve health and well-being. Healthy Living
requires a balance of responsible and smart
health choices; eating right, daily physical
activity, promoting emotional and spiritual
wellness, ensuring adequate sleep, avoiding
harmful drugs, alcohol, tobacco, illness, stress, &
safeguarding a good work-life balance.
