Diet and Exercise Instant Effects

Seeing the effects gradually is part of the challenge of healthy living, where one could be frustrated with the slow effects even with the time spent working hard in the gym and sticking to diets religiously.

However, whether a person sees the effects immediately or not, the body responds the moment the person start making healthier choices. Such changes can reduce the risk of obesity, heart disease, cancer and diabetes, with a promise of a total well being.

A person who wants to control blood sugar levels has the tendency to be healthy where a sudden consumption of food containing carbohydrates, triggers the blood sugar to rise. 

Dr. Kristine Arthur, an internist at Orange Coast Memorial Medical Center in Fountain Valley, California stated that, "Fluctuating blood sugar causes fatigue, and high levels of insulin can lead to weight gain," Dr. Kristine also said, "Over time, this can also cause chronic inflammation in the body."

The benefits of exercise aren't only good for a person's cardiovascular system, but exercise also helps the mood of a person as the  rush of endorphins during physical activity can immediately boost a person's mood and reduce stress levels. And exercise is more like diet, it has immediate effects on the person's blood sugar, minimizing energy peaks and valleys throughout the day.

A cardiologist in Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica, California - Dr. Nicole Weinberg, said, "Exercise helps your breathing, which lowers your heart rate and blood pressure almost instantly."

Dr. Mark D. Lurie, cardiology director at Torrance Memorial Medical Center in Torrance, California - suggests a person should commit to a healthy lifestyle. Dr. Mark D. Lurie stated, "The benefits evolve over months, sometimes years. Physiologic changes will start quickly, but the true effect takes time."
