The rapid rise in the prevalence of chronic diseases represents one of the major health challenges for the coming century. Cancer, cardiovascular disease and diabetes accounted for the majority of deaths in Lambton County in 2000. These diseases reduce not only the quantity but also the quality of our lives. Until recently, we thought of these diseases as medical conditions that struck an unfortunate few, who were occasionally saved by medical miracles. Now, guided by scientific research, we know that many of these diseases can be prevented by making positive lifestyle changes. The purpose of this manual is to help worksites implement healthy living programs and policies. The healthy living programs focus on the four common preventable risk factors for chronic disease: tobacco use, physical inactivity, unhealthy eating and stress.

Benefits of Exercising


• Boost to your emotional well being – Even light exercise can help boost your
mood. Also, more intense exercise can stimulate the release of mood elevating
compounds called endorphins.

• Reduce risk of heart disease – If you are overweight or obese, you are more
prone to heart disease, as you have a higher risk of cardiovascular disease. You
can improve your cardiovascular function if you partake in exercise.

• Improvement to memory – If you exercise more regularly, you move blood
and oxygen to all your body’s organs, including the brain, which is great for
revitalising your mind.

• Reduced risk of Diabetes – Physically active people are less likely to develop
Diabetes, as exercise increases the body’s ability to use sugar for energy and
thereby decreases the need for insulin.

• Other benefits include: - Improved sleep pattern, increased strength,
improved energy level, pain relief, longevity and increased bone density.
