Ziqitza - This World Health Day Invest in your Health
One year into the pandemic, our lives have become more
sedentary than ever. Aspects like long working hours, lethargy,
poor dietary habits, and no physical activity are pushing
people towards a number of lifestyle diseases like obesity,
diabetes, hypertension, heart problems, among others.
These lifestyle diseases can be prevented with help of a strict
regime and necessary precautions. As an old phrase says,
prevention is better than cure. Likewise, our health is our own
responsibility and hence we should keep ourselves updated on
what’s going inside our body. With today’s lifestyle that
includes more work and less physical activities, routine health
check-ups are even more important.
A sedentary lifestyle and junk eating are major enhancers of
weak physical health. With so many underlying reasons, falling
prey to bad and weak health becomes easier, the question arises,
how often should one indulge in a health check-up, quarterly or
twice a year? Technically, the answer lies in our current health
status itself. The recommendations for a routine health check-up
lie majorly on age, medical history, health risk factors, and the
current status of your health.
Realizing the need of preventive health checkups.
Ziqitza Healthcare urges Corporate to regularly organise
preventive health checkup camps for their employees. Wherein
Corporates can tie up with Ziqitza Limited for regular health
check up camps for their employees PAN India.
Dr. Santosh Datar from Ziqitza Healthcare Ltd says,” Health is
defined as a “State of complete physical, mental and social well-
being and not merely absence of disease or infirmity” by the
World Health Organization(W.H.O.).
Just because somebody does not have any symptoms
does not mean she/he is healthy. The health status is
influenced by various factors such as genetics, the well-
being of the mother during pregnancy, nutrition, care
during growing years, exposure to infections,
environment, family cultures, exposure to occupational
hazards at the workplace, mental framework, good or
bad habits and many more. The most neglected aspect is
mental health. Physical and mental health two sides of
the same coin and cannot be separated.
