Objectives
It is important for people to embrace good eating habits and exercise to reduce the chances of developing chronic health
complications. Therefore, the aims and objectives are as follows:
Devise a personal health promotion program which can empower people to choose an effective and fitness behavior.
Reduce the risks of people developing chronic diseases and other-related morbidities.
Enable people to increase control over their wellbeing by embracing different eating and exercise formulas.
Housing is the second factor that dictates the health of an individual. Understandably, the fitness a person can embrace is
conditioned by a place where they live (Familydoctor.org., 2020, p. 1). Individuals who reside in densely populated areas have
high chances of developing diseases such as obesity because they have less room for exercise and poor ventilation. Therefore,
it is worth noting that the housing system determines the healthy lifestyle of a person.
Income is the third factor which influences good health in the individual. Arguably, the amount of money a person makes has a
critical effect on people (Familydoctor.org., 2020, p. 1). People with high income and economic stability tend to be healthier. For
instance, good financial status allows a person to buy a gym system which assures them of having good health. People who
have less income tend to consider one variety of cheap foods, leading to malnutrition due to one nourishment component being
high in the body. Thus, a person’s income highly determines their nutritional status and lifestyle, which they can embrace.
Another way that people’s health can be improved is by treating themselves with new and smaller dishes. Individuals should try
to eat fresh foods, ceasing from taking the same nutrients throughout the period (Jarvis, 2018, p. 20). People should discover
new foods as a way of balancing their diet and nutrients intake. The body stores fats in different foods, putting individuals at risk
of developing diseases like obesity.
People can embrace the other approach of ensuring that their health is improved by rethinking their house cleaning routines,
including bedding and the surrounding environment. Despite mopping being a cleanliness procedure, it equally acts as a form of
exercise, hence keeping individuals fit (Jarvis, 2018, p. 22). Moreover, cleanliness ensures that one reduces germs in the house
by upholding this daily routine. For instance, the flu virus is known to live on hard surfaces for up to forty-eight hours (Wong and
Lee, 2019, p. 1). Thus, wiping surfaces can help reduce the ordeals of infection. Regular cleaning ensures that individuals do not
have asthma or other allergies. Therefore, embracing an effective daily routine of cleanliness is vital as it reduces people’s
chances of deteriorating their health.
