Even in our conservative village, women can be seen exercising in the morning or evening by walking! It is most encouraging to notice good practices to keep good health.
In one school where I was involved in a health examination of children about 20 percent of children between five and ten years were overweight. Its was an alarming information to me.
Although people in Kerala are most health conscious, the health abuse of alcohol or other substance dependence, prevalence of Diabetes, Hypertension, cardiovascular or Renal diseases at a younger age are an in alarming proportion.
The life style has changed and self indulgence is on the increase!
I realise that when you have a walking companion, it more likely to become a habit!
