Health and Wellness

As far back as I can remember, I’ve always focused on a healthy lifestyle.? A runner, played tennis /volleyball throughout high school.

In 2009 I had a serious tailbone injury which restricted me from running.

However, that did not stop me from finding another activity to stay physically active.? I started cycling in 2011.? With discipline and a focused mindset can accomplish so much.

Physical activity reduces risk for heart disease, diabetes, cancer and have lower stress.? The recommended level of activities to produce most health benefits is a minimum of 135 -150 mins physical activity per week.? People who stay fit will cost less, be present more, and be more productive in life generally.? We as a human race should start considering incentives that encourage healthier lifestyle living. Example: tax benefits, lower fees for gym membership passes, tax credits for those who stay healthy etc.

There is a believe that most issues related to lifestyle choices is poverty. Until every person has the means to access healthy food at lower cost, stable shelter, and education… people are unable to have full access to health and well-being lifestyle.

Although there is a believe that our society suffers from a sense of entitlement and does not embrace personal responsibility for health.? Our Health Care System itself is geared towards bring reactive instead of focusing on preventive and early intervention options.

People should be empowered to health education and to care for their health in a proactive way.?

2020 - rocked by the global COVID-19 pandemic.? International lock downs and efforts to suppress the virus had to shape the lived experience of consumers around the world.

This surprisingly has meant a stop - change in the relationship people have with diet and healthy lifestyle.? There is a growing need by consumers for food with a healthier nutrient profile and simpler ingredients listing.
