A healthy diet and lifestyle are our best weapons to fight cardiovascular disease, Regular exercise builds lean muscle, which burns more calories than fat When combined with a healthy diet, exercise can speed up weight loss.  it's the overall pattern of our choices that counts. Some of the barriers and facilitators identified by young people had been addressed by soundly evaluated effective interventions, the prevalence of physical inactivity among 51% of adult Canadians is higher than that of all other modifiable risk factors, but significant gaps were identified where no evaluated interventions appear to have been published (e.g. better labelling of food products), or where there were no methodologically sound evaluations. Exercise can also lower blood pressure. It reduces your risk of heart disease and reduces levels of LDL “bad” cholesterol. DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension), which helps to lower blood pressure, or TLC (Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes), which focuses on lowering our cholesterol levels. This helps it pump more blood with each heartbeat. This delivers more oxygen to our body. With more oxygen, our body functions more efficiently. Physical inactivity is a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and a widening variety of other chronic diseases, including diabetes mellitus, cancer colon and breast, obesity, hypertension, bone and joint diseases osteoporosis and osteoarthritis, and depression. Rigorous evaluation is required particularly to assess the effectiveness of increasing the availability of affordable healthy food in the public and private spaces occupied by young people. Lack of exercise, a poor diet and other unhealthy habits can take their toll over the years Exercise makes your heart stronger.
