I found a great 9.5 minute video on prevention! A Doctor-Professor answers the old question "What is the single best thing we can do for our health" in a completely new way and through a super cool video.
After all his research, he decided upon the "best intervention" because it worked for s many different health problems i.e. hyper-tension, obesity, anxiety, depression, hip fractures in post menopausal women, decrease lower of death, fatigue, QUALITY OF LIFE.
Best thing to do is be active for 30 minutes a day, nothing more than an hour is needed. It just has to be walking, nothing crazy.
Non exercise is the leading risk factor in many of the chronic diseases:
Obesity + NO exercise = bad health outcomes
Obesity + exercise = improved health outcomes
The presentation ended with a question to the audience: Can you just limit sitting and sleeping to 23.5 hours a day? i.e. Can you get up and move for at least 30?
