MANILA, Philippines - Recent studies said people from the Asia Pacific are now being considered as overweight and obese in 2013. Obesity is now identified as a global disease.
The Department of Health (DOH) is working to spread awareness about the risks of being overweight in our country, most especially in schools and offices, where eating cannot be monitored all the time.
A well balanced diet and an active lifestyle can prevent you from becoming sick of the weight. It is more of the kind of food we eat and which type of physical activities we engage in. Remember to eat healthy, keep away from processed food. Introduce a variety of fruits and vegetables in your daily diet to start off. Go for organic and natural food like whole grains, avoid whole daily products and fatty meat. Protein can be found in healthy food like fish, lean meat and legumes. Avoid carbonated drinks such as sodas and opt for naturally squeezed juice from oranges, lemons or calamansi. Don't forget to drink plenty of water to keep you hydrated.
Engage in physical activities like aerobic and muscle- strengthening exercises to help you keep fit. You don't actually need to get a membership in expensive health clubs. Walking or jogging in parks, biking in the neighborhood or doing chores are sufficient aerobic activities. As for strengthening exercises, sit ups and pushups can help improve your muscle strength.
