    What is a
    healthy life?
    It’s a healthy lifestyle that keeps you
    fit, energetic and at a reduced risk of
    disease. According to WHO(World
    Health Organization), healthy living is
    a way of life that helps you enjoy
    more aspects of your life. It is a way
    of living that reduces the risk of
    becoming seriously ill or dying
    prematurely. Health is not just about
    avoiding illness or disease.
    Why do we need a healthy
    life?
    A healthy lifestyle is
    important for everyone. When
    we look after our physical
    health, we feel better too
    fitter, more relaxed and
    better able to cope with
    things.
    What makes a
    balanced lifestyle?
    Balanced living means considering all
    aspects of your life: relationships, work,
    fitness and health, and emotional well-
    being. We all get bogged down with
    work and family responsibilities from
    time to time, but making time for
    yourself is necessary so that you can
    keep up with all your responsibilities.
    TIPS (In general)

    -Eat a healthy diet.


    -Consume less salt and sugar.
    -Reduce consumption of harmful
    fats.
    -Avoid harmful alcohol
    consumption.
    -Do not smoke.
    -Stay active.
    -Check your blood pressure
    regularly.
    Eat a healthy diet
    Eat a combination of different foods, such as fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts and whole grains. By
    eating healthy, you will reduce the risk of malnutrition and non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such
    as diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancer.
    Consume less salt
    and sugar.
    Most people get their sodium from salt.
    Reduce your salt intake to 5 g per day,
    which is about one teaspoon.
    Month to month, Consuming excessive
    amounts of sugars increases the risk of
    tooth decay and unhealthy weight gain.
    WHO recommends consuming less than 5%
    of total energy intake for additional health
    benefits.
    Reduce
    consumption of
    harmful fats.

    Consumption of trans fats increases the


    harmful LDL cholesterol level in the
    bloodstream along with reduction in
    the important HDL cholesterol level.
    Trans fats increases insulin resistance,
    leading to the development of type 2
    diabetes
    Avoid harmful alcohol consumption.

    There is no safe level for


    drinking alcohol. Consuming
    alcohol can lead to health
    problems such as mental and
    behavioural disorders, including
    alcohol dependence, major
    NCDs such as liver cirrhosis,
    some cancers and heart
    diseases.
    Don’t smoke

    Smoking tobacco causes NCDs such


    as lung disease, heart disease and
    stroke. Tobacco kills not only the
    direct smokers but even non-smokers
    through second-hand exposure.
    Currently, there are around 15.9
    million Filipino adults who smoke
    tobacco but 7 in 10 smokers are
    interested or plan to quit.
    Stay active

    Physical activity is defined as


    any bodily movement produced
    by skeletal muscles that
    requires energy expenditure.
    The amount of physical activity
    you need depends on your age
    group. Increase moderate-
    intensity physical activity to 300
    minutes per week for additional
    health benefits.
    Check your
    blood pressure
    regularly

    • Hypertension, or high blood


    pressure, is called a “silent killer”.
    This is because many people who
    have hypertension may not be aware
    of the problem as it may not have
    any symptoms. If left uncontrolled,
    hypertension can lead to heart,
    brain, kidney and other diseases.
    This is vital in the prevention and
    control of hypertension.
    Conclusions

    In conclusion, we need a healthy


    lifestyle to build up a healthy
    immune system and to avoid
    disease. Here, “maintain” means a
    healthy immune system to protect
    your body, to maintain body
    immunity.
