Physical activity and nutrition work together for better health. Being physically active is good for everyone. It is important for maintaining a balanced weight and healthy bones. Being physically active increases the amount of food you need, which makes it easier to get the nutrients you need from foods.

Common everyday activities:  Walking briskly, dancing, riding a bike, hiking, and climbing stairs all count. Keep moving whenever you can. Fit physical activity into your everyday living.

Get your heart beating faster:  Running or jogging, swimming, walking fast, or jumping rope can do it for you. Vigorous activities warm you up and increase your heart rate and breathing rate.

Get stronger: Do enough strengthening activities, such as weight training, to increase strength, keep your muscles firm, and build endurance. Resistance exercises, as well as carrying a backpack or groceries, can strengthen muscles.

Benefits of being physically active:


  • Better physical fitness

  • Improved body weight

  • Builds muscle strength and stamina.

  • Helps you feel good about yourself

  • Helps sleep better

  • Reduces stress

  • Maintains healthy bones and joints

  • Lowers the risk of heart diseases, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, obesity as well as certain cancers.
To be able to remain physically active,  energy giving food is a must.
