Diet, Rest, Sleep, Recreation, Sports and Exercise in Wellness Promotion

Abstract

The human body requires some wellness promotion activities in order to remain healthy and operate at maximum performance and these are diet, rest, sleep, recreation, sports and exercise. Most health problems are preventable as individual's lifestyle choices can lead to better health and longer life or if otherwise poor health and early death. This paper highlights the benefits of maintaining good diet, rest, sleep, recreation, sports and exercise. Good lifestyle does not only dramatically improve one's health, it makes amazing health difference for a good number of people. Poor diet, lack or limited rest, sleep, recreation, sports and exercise are unhealthful and can increase the risk of morbidity and mortality. This paper recommends amongst others that communities should be educated to be abreast with these wellness promotion activities for healthier living.
