The STEPS study showed that 76.2% of the population leads an insufficiently active lifestyle, 44% smoke, and 48.9% consume alcohol.
"It is important to note that more than half of our health (50–55%) depends on our lifestyle," emphasize the center's experts.Doctors recommend regular physical activity:
- improves blood circulation;
- helps control body weight;
- normalizes blood sugar and cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of hypertension, stroke, diabetes, and cancer.
- More intense activities, such as running, swimming, cycling, or team sports, further strengthen the cardiovascular system.
- However, maximum effect can only be achieved by combining active movements, balanced nutrition, and giving up bad habits.
