We all know the exercise is an essential aspect to a healthy lifestyle, and healthy living reduces our chances of illness and other health problems. Why, then, aren't there more government funded exercise programs? Surely getting people to be active would reduce healthcare costs in the long run, right?
According to this, that's exactly what exercise programs do. A study was conducted with senior citizens with diabetes, and it was found that healthcare costs were reduced when community-based exercise programs were implemented. It is believed that these findings will be reflected in individuals living with chronic conditions in other communities, too. What do you think? Are community-based activities prevalent in your area?
