Exercise: Strengthening and Toning the Body

Exercise not only tones and strengthens the body, but it also fuels it with oxygen, and helps in the elimination of toxins. Moderate exercise helps reduce stress, followed by stretching accompanied by deep breathing (such as in the techniques taught in Yoga) helps one to sleep better at night, and helps elevate a person's mood. Exercise, along with proper nutrition, may also minimize the effects of or prevent certain diseases.

One hour of moderately intense physical activity each day helps maintain cardiovascular health. (Source: Institute of Medicine of the National Academies)
