Management – the word itself signifies its  importance – whether it’s  for commercial, social, educational  or any cultural events/assignments. Executing or functioning any assignment/event systematically with proven methods in order to achieve the desired goal/ results, with available resources, refers to ‘Management’.  In other words, there ought to be management  for any successful event.  Likewise, you need to have management for your good health and physical fitness as well. Why ? Because, you have to have sound health and body fitness if you want to lead a healthy longer life.  I did mention  about health in my very first article.  At the cost of repetition, I will endorse once again.

‘Quote : Now  let me ask what is Health  after all ? Frankly speaking, any one will be embarrassed instantly  to answer, probably , though we all talk  about Health- Health and Health, the very basic factor is not clarified.  Though the readers might be fully conversant with this, but for the sake of  refreshing,  I  would like to state that  let us understand what is Health.

“Health is nothing but a state of well-being – physical, mental and social : it is not     a mere absence   of disease or complaints. In other words, Health or Well-being  depends upon nourishment, activities-( both physical and mental) and rest.   If any one of these is excessive or meager, there is an imbalance which leads to   ill- health “.   Unquote “

Hopefully, one can understand now, as to why health management is required for. In my previous article I focused on two key factors to be followed for maintaining physical fitness and good health.  Here, I would like to emphasize  on ‘health management‘ and its governing factors.  There may be numerous factors, but  two important key factors of Health management  are  (1)  Diet Management  (2) Weight management. If these two fundamental factors are understood properly and taken care of, you are rest assured for a longer healthy life.  Now let us analyze these two factors.

1. Diet management : 

Diet management consists  a) selection of balanced diet  (b) eating habits : 

a)   Selection of diet is a very vital  factor in order to keep good health and physical fitness, inasmuch as the food that you select to take in, matters to your metabolism which transforms the desired energy into your body. Again how much energy you need will  depend upon  your  daily activities/routine.  Any excessive or meager quantity will lead to imbalance and ultimately attribute to illness.

Therefore, a balanced diet is very much essential. When we say ‘balanced diet’ this diet refers to intake of appropriate types and adequate amounts of foods and drinks to supply nutrition and energy for the maintenance of body cells, tissues, and organs, and to support normal growth and development.

You must always select your food which consists desired nutrition and calorific value, less fatty and cholesterol contents,  This is not a big deal to organize. First of all you must understand  what it is.  For example, what is  calorific value – the energy stored in food is measured in terms of calories. So you must decide the food in such a way that it contains the desired calorific value.  Ready made charts indicating how many calories one can consumer, are  available in the market/medical stores.

Similarly, the fat content – every one is aware that too much or high fat content food is undesirable for good health. So while selecting your food keep close watch on the fat content – normally on every food pack, it is clearly indicated. Better to avoid such fatty foods. Cholesterol – while it is needed for your body to function well, you have to avoid excessive consumption of it.

As I mentioned above, while selecting your diet you must keep in mind balancing all these ingredients depending on the activities you perform. It should not affect  your metabolism adversely.  If your activities are less and your food intake is more without balancing calorific value, fat  and cholesterol contents, your body will store the excess unconsumed energy which will subsequently lead to obesity causing various problems including heart diseases. Reversely, with more activities and less intake  will lead to underweight and gradually make you sick.  Therefore, the necessity for selection of a balanced diet.

b) Eating habits – Selection of diet only does not suffice. You need to have good eating habits in order to maintain your health and physical fitness. I had mentioned earlier also about these eating habits. The  following  habits  lead to unhealthy practice of  eating :

i)   Eating  while working - 

ii)  Eating while talking over phone

iii) Watching TV/Videos while eating.

iv) Boozing while eating.

If these principles (a) and (b) as mentioned above, are followed strictly, then half the battle for maintaining good health is won.

2. Weight management.

Now, what is weight management. It’s nothing but keeping your body weight at a healthy level. If you cannot manage your body weight then it may put you into various problems such as obesity or the reverse – underweight – in both ways it will affect your health and in the long run, lead  to serious illnesses such diabetes and heart stroke etc.

 This necessitates to pin point the elements that are to be ‘managed ‘ in order to keep your body weight at healthy level.  Here again, there are two elements (a) BMI – Body Mass Index and (b) Physical body weight.  If these two elements are managed cautiously, then physical fitness will always be sound. Let us analyze these two elements too.

a ) BMI –( Body Mass Index ) is  an assessment or you may call it measurement of your body composition. Why is it required ? At the outset,  it will help in identifying certain risk factors such as obesity or High Blood Pressure etc. which are related to your physical body weight. It works like an FIR in diagnosis.

As I mentioned above, both Obesity and underweight are harmful, BMI helps in estimating whether you are at a healthy weight. It tells you how much weight you should possess.  For measurement of BMI, it takes into consideration both your weight and height.  If you want to assess your BMI, you should :

i)         Multiply your weight in pounds by 703.

ii)       Divide that answer by your height in inches.

iii)      Divide that answer by your height in inches again.

As per the information available, the healthy BMI level is 18.5 to 24.9.  Below this will be treated as under weight and above this level will be over weight and further high will be treated as obesity. Therefore, now is the time for all wise men to give importance to this fundamental element of  physical fitness – the BMI, -  to safeguard their good health. Whenever you are subjected to Obesity or Underweight, the basic factor one must know is about the BMI. Whether you are in the desired healthy category or not. 

b) Body Weight is  what one must seriously consider for keeping physical fitness at healthy  level. Here again how much weight one must have, is all calculated by medical experts and the details are available at all medical points. However, you can calculate your body weight  as is mentioned :

 i)  For Men: 106 pounds of body weight for the first 5 feet of height plus 6 pounds for each additional inch. ii) For a small body frame, 10% should be subtracted. For a large frame, 10% should be added. iii) Women: 100 pounds for the first 5 feet of height plus 5 pounds for each additional inch.

To sum up, if the above two basic fundamentals of health management are understood carefully and implemented meticulously, sound health and physical fitness are bound to exist as long as you desire. But for this, as I mentioned in my previous article, you must have strong will to keep your habits under control. 

All that is needed is You must have a mental commitment to adhere to the basic fundas  to possess good health and sound physical fitness to long last.

Some times, I feel pity on myself as to why am I writing such articles about maintaining good health and physical fitness bla.. bla..  Like me there may be numerous authors on this very subject. At times, when I look at the theorytical knowledge and the public actions in practical it makes me disillusioned  as the gap between ‘what is to be done’ and ‘what is being done’ seems impossible to  be bridged.  The reason what I found, upon constant watch and study at different places among different categories of people, reveals that majority of people become weak when it comes to administration of ‘will’ power.  In other words, they have no control over their never ending habits even if it relates to your health and physical fitness.

I mentioned in my previous article about the two important factors such as Metabolism and Balanced diet, should  be  followed meticulously. While some wise people might be doing this, yet I came across many who undertake some weight loss exercises for a specific time bound programs  and  once that is over, they lose control over their ‘eating pattern’ or the selection of  ‘balanced diet’.  They lose control over the quantity or the quality of foods that they should take in.  Thus they fall under the trap of alluring habits rather than  keeping the habits in their control. Thus, the good old saying – ” habits die hard ” proves very significant here. 

Again, as per the golden words, “preach before practice”,  the author of this article is an ardent follower of principles.  Even at 62 never gives up and upon spending much time on how to make people fall on the right track, decided to post articles focusing  the importance of making strong ‘will’ power to overcome the influence of ‘habits’ when it matters to your physical fitness and strong health.  No matter how delicious or how rich any food may be, apply your brakes on that unwanted desire to consume it.  Like wise, have control on eating patterns no matter how easily you can have access to it.    Unless you have this strong ‘will’ to win over your habits, all your fitness plans and weight loss programs will prove to be  a futile exercise.  Better late than never.  Start right now.

While it is utmost essential and the primary need  to look into the important factors in order to keep your physic in fitness and health in good shape at all times, yet, people in general, do not pay much attention to it, mainly due to  busy work schedules or paucity of time on account of heavy daily routines. Either way, it leads to negligence towards maintenance of your body physic and ultimately your health. If health is not taken care, the life becomes a burden, eventually all other activities are subjected to hinderance.

Physical fitness has become the talk of the day and every one religiously adheres to the instructions of a trainer, of course, for a prescribed time span, and goes back to the routine, if not repeating the pattern due to physical fluctuations. This does not purport to be an ideal solution.  If one needs to lead a healthy life, with good physic at all times, the basic key factors which help in maintaining physical fitness and strong health, must be respected- in  other words, should be followed meticulously as part of your daily routine. 

What are the key factors? They are not any hard nuts to break. They are the  simple methods that work in your body which you must understand and give importance to it. The key factors are :

1. Metabolism
2. Balanced Diet                                                                                                              

These factors seem to be very simple but if you go deep into the mechanism and methodology of each factor, you will surely start respecting them. Let us analyze each factor in its practicality. 

METABOLISM: 

In general, every one knows about metabolism. But what is metabolism ? The process of breaking down food molecules so that the energy stored within them is released in your body, in order to  use as ‘energy’ is called metabolism. To elaborate further, the body needs this energy for transforming into various important functions such as your body movement, thought process and above all the growth.  Again, this energy is actually consumed by your body depending on the activities you perform. If you do more activities you need more energy  and correspondingly increase in metabolism activity-to create more energy.   If the activities are less, then the body needs less energy but the body stores  the extra energy  that is not consumed because of decreased activities, in the form of fat cells, assuming that you may need this energy later.  Ultimately it leads to weight gain and various recurring problems such as Obese and Heart diseases etc..

This is what the crux of the matter to understand.  Knowing what metabolism is, you must plan your intake of your diet, depending on the activities you do so that there is no ‘surplus’ fuel or you may call it energy, left out in the body. Now it is clear that the more intake of  food  than what is needed for your body with decreased activities, will be the key result of  weight gain in your body.  Thus, the importance of respecting this key factor which  will automatically take care of your body weight management element thereby ensuring your physical fitness.

BALANCED DIET :

The other important key factor to be taken care is the ‘DIET’.  Now, again, what is Diet. Certainly it does not mean eating less.  Dieting is eating less.   But actually ‘Diet’ is what you eat - that is your food.   A Balanced Diet means the food you take should deliver adequate amount of  energy  in terms of calories while providing maximum nutrients to your body.  

In the above key factor(1), we discussed about  Metabolism, processing of energy and  quantity of intake etc. Now the question is about diet – food – so what food should you take in so that  you  can provide adequate energy to you body. While there is no restrictions about food, yet, you have the choices to make  in order to maintain good health without  incurring any damages of illness at a later stage.

In order to maintain good health, you must eat good food.  Good food means the food which contains less fat, less cholesterol and low calories. However, all these ingredients, such as fat, cholesterol and calories are complementary to each other and are very much essential for your body growth and development.  What is needed is a balance in quantity intake for your metabolism.

Fat is  very much essential for proper functioning of the body inasmuch as it provides the important fatty acids which are not developed by the body and must be ascertained from foods that you take in. Fat is also essential for maintaining healthy skin and hair.  Despite   all these essential elements, one should exercise proper care while choosing the foods to avoid high in fat both saturated and unsaturated contents. While saturated fats, which are found in animal products like butter, cheese, ice cream and fatty meats consists high cholesterol which causes heart diseases etc,  the unsaturated fats which are found mostly in liquid vegetable oils consists of high calorie contents.  Therefore, one has to be very careful  while eating foods that consists high fat contents.

Similarly Cholesterol is also important for your body to work properly. While your body makes some cholesterol, some cholesterol it collects from the foods that you take in. But your body needs a limited quantity only. So too much of cholesterol stored in your body can lead to heart diseases.  Hence, you must be very careful about the foods which you take in. You have to ensure that all that you eat does not produce much cholesterol in your body which will damage your health.

Now the other ingredient i.e calories – this is the most important factor one must be cautious if you want to maintain your good physic and strong health. Calorie means the measurement of energy that you store in the form of food in your body. Different foods have different amounts of energy or calories. While fatty foods consists high amount of calories, fruits and leafy vegetables carry low calories.  Depending on how much energy you need for your body, you must decide your food in such a way balancing the calorific value, nutrient effects(fats) and the amount of cholesterol.  The food selection is a one time basis for which you need not have to measure or calculate the ingredients. They are readily available in the form of nutrition charts.  All that is needed is your will to do so.

Therefore, as mentioned, if the above two factors are taken care properly, the problem maintaining physical fitness and healthy life will be taken care without  incurring burden of on going illnesses and recurring medical expenses.

Unfortunately, hungry has no limitations nor has patience to choose what to eat. The moment you feel hungry and the food you need is beyond your reach, then you have no choice but to grab whatever is available to satisfy the hungry.  Fat consciousness very much exists among every body who cares for his health and body fitness. Yet, one has to surrender when it comes to feed his stomach and this results into eating any type of food that is available- may be consisting even high fats. While there is no harm in eating foods that possess high fats so long as you ensure to get it burnt, which normally  does not happen, there is always an increasing tendency to go in for such fatty foods once you are habituated.  

When talking about high fats, it is important to note that what good or bad this high fat does to your body.

While we cannot expect any good from high fat, it is definitely dangerous for the blood. Generally saturated animal type fat and unsaturated vegetable fats from corn oil etc. causes enormous damage to the blood resulting in blood clotting.  As per some research studies made recently, high fat foods  do bad to the blood also boosting blood  cholesterol causing  blood clotting which may lead to even heart-attack.  As per this study, the fat from the fatty meal that you eat remains in the blood stream inciting trouble for  least 3-4 hours.

In other words, it is not at all safe to have high fat and ,therefore, it necessitates to avoid always fatty foods especially animal-type fat, to safeguard your very existence as the high fat causes evils of blood clotting which further threatens even stroke or you may call it heart-attack.

The moment topic on weight loss is raised, there comes umpteen number programmes, plans and suggestions on how to reduce weight . There is no dearth of weight loss supplements, weight loss diets and above all physical trainers – all these sources only to assist you on how to lose weight.  Of course, not at free of cost. You have to shed a part of your hard earned money from your pocket, only to lose not only unwanted  but a source of evil to your good health and fitness, i.e. excess weight in your body. Does it not sound silly?

Yes, it is.  First of all, accumulating excess weight is a mistake and  to get rid of this problem with monetary loss  and physical strain is a blunder. Then the question comes whether there is any alternative or remedial measures to reduce weight without incurring any expenses.  Of course, alternatives are there.  There are remedies. One must have the ‘will’ to do it.

Unfortunately, even if any one wants to implement the simple and inexpensive methods, the society and its glittering social esteem comes in the way.  In the present-day  modern society, boozing, excessive smoking, drugs and eating rich fatty foods have become the  life style and a matter of  social esteem. These habits, over a period, make you obese. There is no stop here.  In order to overcome this obese or excess weight, you need to go for all sorts of weight loss programs, weight loss diets and jims etc. It has become an order of the day to go for jim whether you need it actually or not.  Then comes the turn of physical trainer. With a specific time period  of 2-3 weeks depending on how much you can afford from your pocket, the PT makes out a training schedule followed by a diet plan from a nutritionist.  Weight loss ?  might be, but definitely for a short period. All these methods are like glittering metals which loses the shine over a period.  Because, thereafter, you don’t have any time to spare for either jim or PT  or any diet plan. You are back to square and the same old routine of 24/7 work load, parties, boozing and foods. Like the good old saying all that glitters is not gold one should avoid such glittering means which will not fetch any lasting results. But you must care for your longer healthy life and physical fitness at all times by adopting such methods which will keep you fit and healthy for a longer period.

In order, therefore,  if you are an obese and wants to  seriously think of  reducing weight without much expenses, there are affordable and achievable methods. One can avoid all those commercial ads, expensive supplements, Diet foods etc., etc.,.

To undergo this simple method, at the outset, we must understand the very root cause of your becoming obese or over weight. You have to make a self-audit on two factors such as (1)  Food and  (2) physical exercise.

As far as food is concerned,   :-

1.What is it  that causes obese?

2.Whether you can regulate it if not avoid it ?

3.Will it solve your problem ?

The first and foremost reason is your eating habits. These eating habits depend on how much care you take or the intensity of your love towards your body – are you treating it in a right way and whether gives it what it needs. Are you feeding your body the best ?  Are you feeding your body in time, as per minimum requisite intervals ? Are you  feeding your body  in excess of what is needed ? If you can find the right answer for these questions, then the cause of your having excess weight is ascertained easily.

Secondly, as mentioned above, it is very much in your control  to regulate how to keep a balance between normal health weight and becoming obese. By all means you can avoid all such eating disorders, fatty  and junk foods and all those so -called  social esteem habits.  After all it’s your body and you have to maintain good health and physical fitness for a longer life.  If you have this inclination, then you make your identity with your physic in the society. Thereby you can avoid all such diet plans, diet control pills and above all the expensive money factor.

Finally, whether it will solve your problem – yes it will.  Once you have the control on choosing the right kind of food, with good eating habits, you will have won half the battle of  losing weight.

With regard to the  No.2 point -  the physical exercise is concerned, it is not necessary that you should go to jim only for expensive exercises or necessarily go for a physical trainer. Of course, you may like to take some tips or suggestions, if need be from a PT. There are umpteen home bound physical exercises which can be undertaken.  Unfortunately, people do not pay much attention to it, whereas for jim, they could easily spare some time out of their busiest work schedule, just because they pay for it.  Further, it is a time bound or for a specific period – say two or three weeks only.(of course depending on the affordability of a person ).

The simple exercises, if undertaken on daily basis, regularly at home sparing only half an hour, the body physic can be maintained  without putting on any extra weight thereby avoiding the case of obese resultantly, avoiding the very thought of weight loss.  All that is needed is your mind-set and willingness to implement it. The very idea behind this physical exercise on a regular basis is to burn extra calories/fats, if any, in your body and stabilize the metabolism.  These home bound exercises do not incur any extra monetary expenses.

The author himself at 62, is undergoing this process just spending 30 minutes a day on exercise at home regularly without any restrictions on food but with right choice, with the right quantity and with perfect intervals, leading a  healthy life with a negligible medical expenditure so far.

There may be several articles suggesting various methods, ‘dos’ and ‘don’ts’ to keep your body always fit. Yet, this is another reminder on the subject matter, as forgetfulness is a human tendency. To keep your body away from any diseases, keep it always fit for a healthy life, the following factors which seem to be most common in general life style, must be taken into account seriously :

1. Alcohol - Do not make alcohol a regular habit. May be it sounds very silly, especially when it has become a life style and social esteem. But once you are addicted to alcoholism it becomes a matter of your health and life risk. Boozing, no doubt gives a momentary pleasure but its after effects are so precarious that it may even take your life. Regular boozing-alcohol-leads to so many diseases like diabetes, liver damage and even heart failures. Boozing is a routine matter in the present society, people do suffer from this alcoholism, yet the habits die hard. Then why risk your life ? Avoid it.

2. Smoking – It’s another silly habit which attracts every one and yet another social esteem factor. Despite repeated regulatory cautions such as ’smoking is injurious to health’ etc, no one ever pays attention to it, until he is subjected to some kind illness. Smoking, though appears to be very simple matter, at the outset it is very expensive affair and secondly, it damages the very important parts of your body i.e. your lungs and ultimately spoil your health totally in the long run,.

3. Drugs - This is another factor that makes you totally addicted if you ever venture to even experiment it. Initially, it attacks your body health and gradually make your mind totally defunct which causes tremendous damage to your health in totality. Further, recovery from this drug addiction is very rare and in a way is impossible.

The above factors, no doubt appears to be genuinely very common and need of the society for social esteem but at what cost ? Every one knows how much of their hard earned money being spent towards medical expenses once they are entangled with the concerned diseases from the above factors. So it’s always wise to avoid these once and for all in order to keep your physical fitness in tact and to live a longer healthy life.

While we know that food is an unavoidable source of strength for one’s life, we must also know that all foods that we eat are not very friendly to your healthy life. Some illnesses and sufferings do happen with some kind of foods that we eat. Though it’s a common phenomena, yet we do not pay much attention to it.

Quite often we face various kinds of common diseases like headaches, asthma, irritable bowel syndrome, depression, children having rashes, suffering ear infections, diarrhea and various other body pains leading to ill health, at times, for longer periods.. It has been found by various research and study groups as appear in health magazines and related books. that these common diseases occur from some kind of foods we eat. We may call it as Food allergies or in other words adverse food reactions. These food allergy problems, if identified well in time, could be solved to save your health. Or else they may cause serious problems of illness for a longer periods. Therefore, to ensure physical fitness to live a healthy longer life without these illnesses,one has to make a self-audit on ‘are we really serious about the foods that we eat’.

Now what are those foods which mostly cause adverse reactions or allergies, leading to your health disaster ? Some experts say, the following foods are the source of some chronic diseases and allergies.

a) Dairy products
b) Citrus fruits
c) Nuts
d) Eggs
e) Cereals -Wheat & wheat products

Having identified the food categories, we must also know as to why these foods cause adverse reactions. Here again, while these foods may react adversely to some, it may be friendly to others. It all depends on your body health and physical resistance. According to experts, various constituents in foods that you take in, are direct instigators. Under normal course, your body enzymes inactivate the foreign ingredients such as natural chemicals etc, during digestion. If the enzymes are faulty and unable to inactivate the foreign ingredients properly, they tend to create problems leading to all sorts of headaches, depressions and infections etc., depending on the foods that you eat and the body resistance you have.

Therefore, if you are suffering from any constant headaches, depression, moody, sluggish, irritable bowel syndrome and asthma etc., you must list out the routine foods you are eating and then concentrate on singling out and identifying the actual culprit of food so that the problem of disease that you suffer could be alleviated for taking care of good health. This exercise can be carried out methodically by one-self. This, as per nutrition experts, is an economical and precautionary measure before venturing into any major medical expenditure unless otherwise warrants.
