The highs of exercise
ACCORDING to the National Stroke Association of Malaysia, stroke is the third largest cause of death in this country with an estimate of 40,000 cases yearly.
The risk of getting stroke can be reduced by adopting a healthy lifestyle – limiting alcohol consumption, eating a healthy diet, quitting smoking and being more physically active. Exercising helps to lower blood pressure, control weight, create a healthy balance of blood fats and improve the body’s ability to handle insulin.
Aim to do moderateintensity exercise for 30 minutes for at least five days a week.
Brisk walking is the easiest form of exercise suitable for people of all ages and fitness levels.
It can be done at any time and even at home with a treadmill.
