Physical activity
Description
Physical Activity: The 21st Century's Solution to Global Medical Concerns looks at the positive role that engaging in physical activity on a regular basis has in helping control the onset of several widely spread non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The video presents a relatively brief history of exercise medicine, as well as discusses the fact that inactivity is a major risk factor for NCDs. The video also points out the basic dose-responses attendant to exercise and reviews that minimum amount of physical activity required to help prevent NCDs. In addition, the video explores the potential impact of physical activity on two specific diseases — diabetes and Alzheimer's. Finally, the video details several examples of steps that can be undertaken to get people to exercise more.
