In today's world, people are plagued with a growing number of health conditions and diseases. Problems like obesity have increased tenfold and an increasing number of people are looking for medication or surgical cures to help get rid of their problems. But are these the only cures to these problems? A few doctors weighed in and said that the best way to cure a health problem is to start living a healthy life. In fact, if one starts early and continues to lead a healthy life, chances are they won't develop a health condition at all.
"We need to reduce the role of hospitals and doctors by 70 per cent to 80 per cent, which is possible only through health education," said one doctor. He added that people need to be educated about the importance of opting for a healthy lifestyle rather than just rushing into surgical cures. "Don’t over-stuff yourself with food and live an unhurried and healthy lifestyle," said a doctor. He emphasised on the importance of lifestyle modification, weight control and regular exercise.
Another doctor also revealed that most patients tend to spend their money on things that do not work. For example, if one has a heart problem, he can manage the condition by eating right and opting for the right amount of exercise. Instead, most people choose to opt for surgeries or stent implants which can have adverse effects on their health. "Most deaths, due to advanced non-communicable diseases, can be prevented if people adopt a healthy lifestyle and control obesity," concluded one doctor. Stay tuned for more updates.
