Why is it important to stay healthy and well?
Healthy people tend to have a better quality of life, more independence, are able to make more of their own choices and have better life chances.
A healthy lifestyle can help prevent you from developing long-term conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, cancer and high blood pressure. Simple changes like eating healthily, regular exercise, drinking sensibly, being smoke-free, practicing safe sex and managing your stress levels can all help to keep you in good health.
