Did you know that the number of people with diabetes is increasing dramatically in the Czech Republic? One in three Czechs over the age of 65 suffers from the disease, with the highest increase recorded between the ages of 50 and 75. If this trend continues, by 2035 one in ten Czechs will have diabetes, regardless of age. Meanwhile, most cases of type 2 diabetes are associated with overweight, obesity, alcohol consumption or smoking. This is something that each of us can influence by changing lifestyle.
Attention! Diabetes may not cause any pain at first, but it can gradually lead to serious health complications. In addition, diabetes is often associated with high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Listen to your body and see your doctor regularly.
Here are some practical tips for a healthy lifestyle:
1️⃣ A healthy diet is essential: Aim for a varied diet rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, legumes and unsweetened dairy products. Look for healthy fats such as nuts, seeds, avocados, fish and vegetable oils.
2️⃣ Regular exercise: Get at least 30 minutes of physical activity a day. Overall, you should aim for at least 150 minutes of exercise per week.
3️⃣ Hydration: Drink unsweetened beverages such as water or herbal teas and avoid sweetened drinks.
4️⃣ Let's go for fun tips:
💃🕺 Dancing in the living room: Put on your favorite music and dance.
🌻🌿 Garden fitness: Gardening isn't just for grandparents. Try it and see how much you sweat.
