According to the World Health Organization, 80% of heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes and 40% of cancer could be prevented. PREVENTED. Avoided completely. How can we do this? With a healthy diet and lifestyle.
When we are young our bodies are full of growth, gaining strength and vibrancy, with very little effort on our part. But as we age, if we don’t continue to be active and eat healthy, it can take a toll on our bodies. Whether you’re 40 or 80 years of age, you can flip that switch back and strengthen those muscles, improve your heart health, lower that blood pressure, lose unwanted pounds, and regain your vibrancy.
What exactly does a healthy lifestyle look like?
EATING healthy, mostly whole, unprocessed, plant-based foods.
MOVING our bodies and sometimes working up a sweat and pushing our muscles.
LIVING our best lives, being connected to people and causes we care about.
If we do these three things, really do them, we improve the quality and length of our lives. All while being more independent and having a whole lot more fun! We owe it to ourselves and our loved ones to flip the switch so that we can live the good life for many more years to come.
