Define practicing healthy behaviors
Inessa [10]

Answer:

Healthy behavior should include

1. Regular exercise because exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently.

2. Talking about your emotions because talking can be a way to cope with a problem you've been carrying around in your head for a while.

3. Eating well because a healthy diet is essential for good health and nutrition. It protects you against many chronic noncommunicable diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Eating a variety of foods and consuming less salt, sugars, and saturated and industrially-produced trans-fats, are essential for a healthy diet.

4. Getting proper sleep because sleep can reduce stress and improve your mood. Sleep will also help you think more clearly and do better in school and/or work.
