Information

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.

Physical Activity

Getting active is one of the best ways to lose weight and keep fit. There are all sorts of activities and sports that can get you moving and aid weight loss. Being physically active is not just a good way to lose weight it also keeps you fit and healthy. Cycling, Dance, Football, Gym, Running/Jogging, Racket Sports, Swimming, Tai Chi, Walking/Rambling and Yoga. thumbs up



Calories and Weight

A pound of fat equals 3500 calories. To lose 1 pound a week you will need to expend 3500 more calories than you eat that week, whether through increased activity or decreased eating or both. Losing 1-2 pounds of fat a week is a sensible goal, and so you will want to use the combination of increased activity and eating less that will total 3500 calories for 7 days.

Although exercising is great just being more active is also a good way to burn calories. There are many small changing you can make to your daily routine that will burn calories for example:

• Take the stairs instead of the lift
• Keep walking whilst the escalator caries you up
• Walk or cycle instead of driving short distances
• Park your car further away than you need to or get off the bus one early
• Do some exercise on your lunch hour - swimming, yoga etc
