"brisk walking" untuk kesihatan

Sebagai pelajar perubatan, walaupun sememangnya kita nak meluangkan banyak masa yg ada utk belajar, sebenarnya kita boleh "curi-curi " masa utk bersukan. Ada antara kita yang suka kemas rumah, ada yang ada set gym di rumah, ada yang suka pergi bershopping dan ada yang suka pergi jalan2 makan angin hujung minggu di sungai Vltava. Mahu tak mahu, kita sendiri sebagai bakal Dr. perlu menjaga kesihatan badan sendiri.

Salah satu sukan yg kita boleh main "curi-curi" masa sewaktu hendak ke kelas adalah:

BRISK WALKING  atau jalan cepat.

According to a study, regular walking improves the BMI (body mass index) and blood pressure levels in people with diabetes. Allowing muscle movement leads to more use of glucose by the muscle cells. This also involves utilization of more insulin.

Protect against miscarriages

It can reduce fatigue and related pains, help lose weight easily, and lower risks of gestational diabetes for pregnant mom. Walking can also prevent spontaneous abortions by lowering down the hormonal fluctuations which cause uterine contractions.

Rejuvenate your mind and spirit

Walking benefits not just your body but also your mind. Brisk walking helps ease stress and anxiety, reduces depression and imparts a positive kick-start to your day. It improves your self-esteem, charges up the mood and helps to keep you energetic, positive and happy throughout the day.

Manage extra kilos

Proper exercise coupled with a nutritious diet can help to burn calories which would otherwise end up as fat.

Walking stimulates the blood flow, and provides oxygen to the brain. This leads to improved functioning of the brain and better ability to recall. Reduces also risk of dementia and alzheimer in seniors.

Add years to your life

Exercising can add to longevity. Walking with peers can also cheer you up and motivate you.

Walk for better sexual health
 Walking two miles a day boosts blood circulation which cuts down on the risk of impotency.
