Explanation:
FIVE MAIN FACTORS FOR MAINTAINING GOOD HEALTH:
Make Diet Goals for Maintaining Good Health:
“A history of poor eating and physical activity patterns have a cumulative effect and have contributed to significant nutrition- and physical activity-related health challenges that now face the U.S. population. About half of all American adults—117 million individuals—have one or more preventable chronic diseases, many of which are related to poor quality eating patterns and physical inactivity.
Nutrition is paramount in the Balanced Well-Being functional approach to maintaining good health. Our nutritionist is involved in all new patient packages to help align diet with individualized treatment plans.
Rest for Enhanced Wellness:
“Insufficient sleep has also been linked to these (obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease) and other health problems, and is considered an important risk factor. Although scientists have just begun to identify the connections between insufficient sleep and disease, most experts have concluded that getting enough high-quality sleep may be as important to health and well-being as nutrition and exercise,” says Harvard Health.
The most common type of sleep disorder is the obstructive variety. In obstructive sleep apnea the upper airway leading to the lungs becomes obstructed at various potential spots. This obstruction may be caused by excess tissue in the airway as in obesity, enlarged tonsils, a very large tongue, nasal obstruction, and relaxation of the airway musculature collapsing when asleep.
Establish Exercise Habits – Foundational for Maintaining Good Health:
- Controls weight
- Combats health conditions and diseases
- Improves mood
- Boosts energy
- Promotes better sleep
- Supports a healthy sex life
- It’s fun, social and reduces stress
Before beginning an exercise regimen, it always important to consult your doctor to make sure you are ready for certain levels/types of exercise.
Practice Good Posture:
When thinking about ways for maintaining good health, posture probably isn’t one that people think of very often. However, we should! “Having poor posture can put more stress on certain muscles and joints, forcing them to be overworked and causing them to fatigue,” says the U.S. News and World Report. Their research shows that poor posture can cause problems with fatigue, circulation, arthritis, mood, musculoskeletal dysfunction, jaw pain, breathing efficacy, headaches, sexual function, and shoulder and back pain.
