Mumbai, 30 January (IANS). Expressing concern over the increasing obesity in the country, Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the importance of fitness in a program as very important. On this, famous fitness coach Dr. Mickey Mehta said that obesity not only causes diseases like heart disease, hypertension and diabetes, but also weakens the ability to fight against diseases.
Mickey Mehta told IANS that the light that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has highlighted on the serious health risks of obesity is extremely important. Obesity not only causes diseases like heart disease, high blood pressure and diabetes, but it also weakens the immune system, which makes the body more sensitive to infections. Additionally, obesity can also cause problems such as respiratory, digestion, concentration and reduction in energy levels. Obesity affects a person’s creativity, sleep quality and overall vitality, leading to a decline in quality of life. To face this challenge, adopting yoga, pranayama, balanced diet, Ayurvedic and natural remedies can be beneficial. If India has to become a world guru, then we have to fight a strong battle against obesity. “

It is very harmful and we have to adopt a healthy lifestyle to stop it. It is necessary to promote physical activity, balanced diet and healthy habits.

He said, “I myself am a supporter of Fit India Movement and am committed to spreading this awareness. We should follow the schemes available under this movement and especially motivate children and youth for sports and yoga. If we are regularly engaged in physical activities, then not only our health will improve, but our country will also become strong. “
