Nutrition and exercising are a big part of our lives on a daily basis. Sadly, some don't take it seriously. I have been into fitness on and off for years, but have been consistent lately. And I have noticed in myself and with the changes of my daily routines and how that my life has benefited from it. I would like to share the benefits to better health.

1. Reduces your dementia risk.

Dementia attacks the brain and causes memory loss and other things with it . Benefit to being active help our bodies avoid dementia. Dancing is one of them, due to the coordination and steps is another benefit. Dancing lowers the risk of getting dementia, especially the older you get .

2. Decreases your osteoporosis risk.

One factor to exercise, is the benefits it does to the bones and makes them stronger to live a long healthy life. Weight lifting is a favorite of mine and the impact to lift heavier weights is a benefit. The coordination and right form helps the muscles and prevents injuries.

3 .Relaxing boosts your memory.

Based on studies, being more active helps the brain and getting enough rest. Rest is a benefit of motivation to ourselves and improves our performance, whether in the gym or work activities.

4.Reduces stress, depression and anxiety.

Stress is common to the average teen. To an adult, depression can cause anxiety and drives a person away, not closer, to taking care of themselves. It can lead to health issues. The positive side to exercise is it builds confidence and increases body temperature, which helps to calm nerves in our system.

5.Reduces cancer risk.

I like to state that taking care of ourselves can reduce the risk of different types of cancer for example lung, colon and breast cancers with our physical activity and what we nourish into our bodies.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.

The dynamics of any friend group are usually determined by the personalities which make it up. Chances are, while personalities may overlap, each person in your friend group holds his or her own place. It is the differences which bring the groups together and keep them functioning.
