Back in March Public Health England launched their ‘One You’ campaign which aims to help adults across the country avoid health conditions caused by modern day life.

In this age of technology it can be very hard to maintain a healthy lifestyle with many of us spending most of our day sitting in front of a computer. This new campaign urges everyone to move more, eat well, drink less and be smoke free. It also provides advice on reducing stress level and sleeping better.

Professor Sir Muir Gray, clinical adviser for the One You campaign said:

“Although it has been customary to blame people for their ‘lifestyle’ we now appreciate that we need to take into account the environmental pressures that make it difficult to make healthy choices, having to sit 8 hours a day at work for example, and then drive an hour home. One You is designed to help every individual identify not only their risks but also the pressures they face in their life and the stress that results, and then support them with personalised tools and advice.”

The One You website is great resource for health information and on this website you can take the ‘How Are You’ quiz to assess how healthy your lifestyle is as well as download a range of free apps to get you fit and healthy.
