Adopting healthy behaviors – such as eating nutritious foods, controlling portion sizes, being physically active, and avoiding tobacco use – can prevent or control most chronic diseases.  Here are some simple steps you can take as an individual to be on your way to a healthier, happier, longer life.

Eat Better, Move More

Over 57% of all Floridians are overweight.  A healthy diet and regular physical activity are both important for maintaining a healthy weight.  Over time, even a small decrease in calories eaten and small increase in physical activity can help prevent weight gain and help promote weight loss.

The Leon County Health Department encourages you to develop a healthier, more energetic lifestyle by making 2 minor changes: moving 2000 more steps and eating 100 fewer calories every day.
