LIFESTYLE
 The way in which an individual lives is called lifestyle.
 This includes the typical patterns of an individual’s
behavior like everyday routine at home, in school, or at
work: eating, sleeping and exercise habits and many
others.
 These patterns of behavior are related to elevated or
reduced health risk.
 Teenagers like you should be more aware on how your
nutritional practices can affect your health.
These modifications should be done gradually, like
reducing the intake of fatty food, getting up to reach
for something instead of asking someone to get it
for you, or walking faster are more often.
IMPORTANT LIFESTYLE FACTORS:
1. A healthy balanced diet
 A healthy and balanced diet will prevent you from
becoming overweight and putting you at risk of
getting any one of the above lifestyle diseases.
 Three balanced meals a day with a healthy mid-
morning and mid-afternoon snack will ensure you
remain energized while providing your body with
good nutrition.
IMPORTANT LIFESTYLE FACTORS:
2.  Drinking lots of water
 Did you know we can survive around 3 weeks
without food yet we cannot go without water for
more than 7 days? What this is telling us is that
water is vital. We should be drinking eight
glasses of pure water a day in order to keep
hydrated and maintain good health. (Juices,
cooldrinks and other beverages do not count as
water.)
IMPORTANT LIFESTYLE FACTORS:
3. Exercising regularly
  Exercising also strengthens muscles and
therefore increases bone density, reducing the
risk of you getting osteoporosis in your old age. It
improves lung capacity and aids proper breathing.
 A big plus to doing regular exercise is it improves
your mental health, reduces stress, helps you
sleep better and improves your mood.
IMPORTANT LIFESTYLE FACTORS:
4. Plenty of sleep
 A full night’s sleep is vital as it gives your body some time
to regenerate and recharge. You should be getting no less
than seven hours of sleep per night because your body
needs this amount of time to take care of its metabolic
functions, like repairing damaged cells, recharging tired
old cells and getting rid of toxins. Consistent lack of sleep
can have quite a serious effect on your physical and
mental health and wellbeing.
IMPORTANT LIFESTYLE FACTORS:
5. NO TO SMOKING
 Constant exposure to the nicotine in tobacco can cause
coronary artery disease, peptic ulcer disease, esophageal
reflux, hypertension, fetal illnesses, delayed wound
healing, and cancers, and can significantly shorten your
lifespan.
IMPORTANT LIFESTYLE FACTORS:
6. REDUCING ALCOHOL
CONSUMPTION
 If you are consuming a moderate amount of alcohol –
about one drink a day – you have nothing to worry
about.
 However, drinking more than this can lead to health
issues, such as a higher risk of heart disease, some
cancers (liver cancer in particular), high blood pressure
and stroke. Alcohol can be addictive and if you have a
drinking problem you are at a higher risk of having
accidents, being violent and even having suicidal
IMPORTANT LIFESTYLE FACTORS:
7. Keep a check on mental and physical
health
 It is a good idea to have an open and honest relationship
with your doctor as he or she will help you navigate your
health journey through life. Remember that most
diseases can be cured if they are detected at an early
stage. This applies to your mental health, too.
