Regular physical activity can help you maintain your weight, keep off weight that you lose and help you reach physical and cardiovascular fitness. If it’s hard to schedule regular exercise sessions, try aiming for sessions of at last 10 minutes spread throughout the week.

If you would benefit from lowering your blood pressure or cholesterol, the American Heart Association recommends 40 minutes of aerobic exercise of moderate to vigorous intensity three to four times a week.

Eat a variety of nutritious foods from all the food groups.

You may be eating plenty of food, but your body may not be getting the nutrients it needs to be healthy. Nutrient-rich foods have minerals, protein, whole grains and other nutrients but are lower in calories. They may help you control your weight, cholesterol and blood pressure.

Eat an overall healthy dietary pattern that emphasizes: <span><span>a variety of fruits and vegetables,</span><span>whole grains,</span>low-fat dairy products,<span>skinless poultry and fish</span><span>nuts and legumes</span>non-tropical vegetable oils</span>Limit saturated fat, trans fat, sodium, red meat, sweets and sugar-sweetened beverages. If you choose to eat red meat, compare labels and select the leanest cuts available.

One of the diets that fits this pattern is the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) eating plan. Most healthy eating patterns can be adapted based on calorie requirements and personal and cultural food preferences.

<span>Eat less of the nutrient-poor foods.</span>

Which is a factor that can determine how drinking will affect a person?   A. how many other people are drinking the same drink  
Wewaii [24]
It would be C, gender and size. Smaller people have higher blood alcohol concentration, which is how much alcohol is in the bloodstream, compared to larger people. Also, females reach higher blood alcohol concentration faster than males because they have less water in their bodies to dilute it and less enzymes to break it down. Hope this helps!
