Teen lifestyle habits increase chronic headaches.

Researchers in Norway found that teenage lifestyle habits are associated with recurring headaches. Lack of physical activity, smoking, and having excess weight significantly increased the incidence of headaches. Risk was even higher if a teen had more than one of these habits.

PositiveTip: Exercising, not smoking, and keeping weight in the normal range can help prevent headaches.

Physical inactivity is high stakes game.

After analysing the lifestyle habit data in several large studies, researchers have found that those who were physically inactive doubled their risk of ischemic heart disease, experienced 72% increased risk of ischemic stroke, a 52% higher risk of breast cancer, and an 80% increase in colon cancer risk.

PositiveTip: Exercise is a great way to reduce your risk of illness and disease. Start a physical activity program today! It will reduce your risks and give you a brighter outlook.
