Engaging in physical activity offers a multitude of benefits for both your physical and mental well-being. Here are some of the key advantages:

1. Improved cardiovascular health: Brisk walking, cycling, or swimming, strengthens your heart and improves circulation. It helps lower blood pressure, reduces the risk of heart disease, and enhances overall cardiovascular function.

2. Weight management: Regular physical activity helps control weight by burning calories and building muscle mass. It boosts metabolism, making it easier to maintain a healthy weight.

3. Enhanced mood: Stimulates the release of endorphins, neurotransmitters in the brain that promote feelings of happiness and reduce stress. It can also alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety, improving your overall mood and mental well-being.

4. Increased energy levels: Boosts energy levels by improving blood flow and delivering oxygen and nutrients to your tissues. It also enhances muscle strength and endurance, reducing fatigue and increasing stamina for daily activities.

8. Reduced risk of chronic diseases: Lowers the risk of developing chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes, stroke, certain cancers, and metabolic syndrome. It helps regulate blood sugar levels, improves insulin sensitivity, and reduces inflammation in the body.

Here are some ways we can fit physical exercise in our busy routines:

Boosting your water intake is key for good health. Water is vital for digestion, circulation, and overall well-being. Aim for at least eight glasses a day to stay hydrated, improve energy, and support your body's functions.

1. Carry a reusable water bottle with you wherever you go to make it convenient to sip throughout the day.

2. Set reminders on your phone or use an app to prompt you to drink water regularly, ensuring you meet your daily intake goals.

3. Infuse your water with slices of fruits like lemon, cucumber, or berries to add flavor and make it more enticing to drink.

4. Make it a habit to drink a glass of water before each meal, helping you stay hydrated while also potentially reducing your calorie intake during meals.

On 07/07/23 Alexia was involved in a fatal accident that took her life. She is Dr. Voss' niece and used to work as a medical assistant here at the clinic. Alexia was fun, kind and brilliant! She had a dream of becoming a pediatrician, she loved working with kids and was really good at it. We will always miss her in the Health Plus family 🖤
