*Health tip of the day* Sports Health reported, physical inactivity is an increasing public health concern and the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. The World Health Organization estimates more than 80% of the world’s adolescent population is insufficiently active. I would recommend 30-60 minutes of moderate or vigorous physical activity daily to reduce cardiovascular and chronic disease. #healthcare #patientcar #chronicdisease #reducecardiovasculardisease #reducechronicdisease
