Exercise

Exercise reduces the risk of heart disease by improving blood circulation (according to the American Heart Association). Exercise helps keep weight under control and improves blood cholesterol levels. It can even help manage stress and boost your energy levels. 

In addition, weight-bearing exercise can help build and maintain bone mass and prevent osteoporosis. Regular weight - bearing exercise, especially early in life, improves the likelihood of reaching peak bone density (according to the National Osteoporosis Foundation).

Aim for some sort of exercise activity each day. Whether you are walking with a friend, choosing to take the stairs instead of the elevator, or visiting the gym regularly, you will see the benefits of exercise.

You should consult your doctor before beginning any exercise program , especially if you have been inactive or have previous fractures or injuries.
