Focus should be more on healthy lifestyle during pandemic: Gommers
NL TimesEmergency doctor and member of the Outbreak Management Team, Diedrerik Gomemrs, said in the BNR Podcast that the Cabinet should have placed more emphasis on healthy living during the lockdown. Fortunately, the weather is now improving.” The OMT-member reminded listeners to keep their body moving and pay attention to their diet and sleep patterns. Gommers said that overall a trend of increasing weight has been noticed since the lockdown began, which is likely linked with too little exercise in combination with unhealthy food. He said it is fine to have days where you enjoy yourself from time to time, however, “you have to pay attention that you don’t indulge too much and that you still try to live a healthy lifestyle.” The healthier your body is, the more likely you are to withstand the coronavirus should you contract it.
