Lifestyle Modification

What is Lifestyle modification & why is it, the need of the hour ?
Lifestyle is the way you live your life; what you eat, how and when you eat, how much you exercise, how you cope with stressful situations. Lifestyle Modification is a pro-active approach towards optimum health & wellness by bringing about appropriate changes in the way you live to Live Life More.

It is the need of the hour because the biggest killer in the world today accounting for almost 80% deaths worldwide is not war, disease, natural calamities or accidents. The biggest killer is, Lifestyle. Wrong diet; lack of physical activity and exercise; Obesity; mental stress and tensions of fast paced competitive life; pollution; alcohol and smoking are the major culprits; which manifest themselves innocently as high blood pressure, diabetes or high blood cholesterol and then without warning, strike fatally as heart attacks, stroke or cancer. They can potentially cut short the lives (mortality) or disable the patients (Morbidity) in the most productive years of their lives. Hence, one has to realize that one’s lifestyle plays a crucial role in “remaining healthy”.

So, a scientifically planned and logically guided healthy lifestyle is the cornerstone to preventing disease and attaining Optimum Health and Well-being.

Is Lifestyle Modification difficult?
Contrary to popular belief, leading a healthy lifestyle doesn’t have to be difficult; it doesn’t have to be painful or time-consuming. Making gradual, simple changes in your diet and physical activity will make great improvements in your health and well-being, and they can drastically reduce your risk of disease or complications of disease if it already exist.

Can Lifestyle Modification help in conditions like Heart Disease, Hypertension, Diabetes, obesity etc?
For people already diagnosed or with a family history of degenerative diseases like heart disease, diabetes, cancer etc, an active lifestyle can slow or stop the process for all but those with serious genetic disorders. Studies have shown that a comprehensive lifestyle intervention program that includes regular scientifically planned physical activity, a tailored healthy diet and a stress reduction program can “Add years to life, add life to years” i.e. it can prolong the life-span, improve your quality of life by controlling and even reversing the reversible disease process.

Evidence also shows that an active lifestyle and its capability in reducing body fat, is associated with a reduced risk for some types of cancers: prostate for men, breast and uterine cancers for women.
In addition, regular physical activity and a healthy diet are successful in treating non-insulin dependent diabetes (NIDDM); for some patients, it has reduced or eliminated the need for insulin substitutes. In general, regularly active adults have 42 percent lower risk of developing NIDDM.
