Health is a condition of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of illness or disability. Health is not something one receives but something one has to work and strive towards. This presupposes active efforts from the individual, the family, and the community. In the chain of causative factors and pathological processes which can lead to illness, disability, and death, there are many links, some known and some unknown. Our resources and means must be applied at that point in the causative chain where the best prospects lie for reducing the incidence of illness, disability, and death. Diseases due lifestyle and environmental factors now dominate our health statistics. Material standards of living and personal philosophy of life bear a close relationship to the origin and development of these diseases. In that respect, regular physical activity is seen as an essential component in a lifestyle which itself is the basis for the health promoting idea. In our review we look into physical activity and its influence on health.

Introduction. The study aims to determine the level of awareness and meeting recommendations regarding physical activity in selected chronic diseases patients groups in eastern Slovakia. We further focused on the role of the physician and medical staff in providing recommendations on performing physical activity in the patients’ treatment as well as meeting these recommendations by the patients. Material and Methods. The study comprised 893 patients (353 males and 540 females) of average age 54.24 years. The dominant condition for participating in the research was the occurrence of one or more diagnoses out of three underlying chronic diseases (cardiovascular disease, oncology disease, metabolic disease) that do not prevent physical activity. For data collection, a non-standardized questionnaire had been applied, as part of the questionnaire battery explicitly designed for the research. The results were analyzed in relation to the chronic diseases groups and gender. Results. More than 60% of the surveyed acknowledged the importance of physical activity in treating their diseases; however, only one-third of patients performed physical activity regularly. Nearly half of patients were provided only with general information concerning physical activity by their physicians. Similarly, half of patients received information from their physicians on the minimum requirements for physical activity and were aware of exercises to be carried out in the prevention and treatment of their diseases, but showed no interest in performing those. Differences in patientsˈ awareness of PA within the individual chronic disease groups were significant. Gender-related differences were found significant only in particular cases. Conclusions. The study supports the importance of education and propagation of healthy lifestyle, inherently including regular physical activity.

Background. The aim of this work was to examine the awareness of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) on the importance of physical activity (PA) in the prevention and treatment of their disease. Material and methods. The survey was completed by 178 respondents (47.3% women, 52.7% men), of whom 69.1% were dependent on exogenous insulin. Data was collected in April 2019 via a questionnaire given to patients at the Department of Diabetology and Internal Medicine at the Louis Pasteur University Hospital in Košice, Slovakia. Results. More than half of the respondents admitted having insufficient information about their health condition, and a similar proportion felt lack of knowledge regarding exercise for their illness. As many as 69.1% of the patients reported inadequate help by their health care providers with regard to the do’s and dont’s of their disease, and 41.9% of respondents reported having no knowledgeable health care provider with whom to share their concerns. Conclusions. Based on the results obtained, it is concluded that a substantial number of DM patients do not have adequate information about their health condition and how to improve it. On the other hand, nearly two-thirds of participants recognize that regular physical activity (PA) is an option to achieve positive changes.

A comprehensive review about the current situation in obesity and its consequences. The authors in the first parts of the paper define obesity, describe the methods for assessment of obesity and the amount of fat in the body and discuss the question if obesity itself is a disease or not. According to their view obesity is not a disease but a pathological condition caused by a disturbance of appetite regulation, as well as a gateway to many diseases. In the next part they present the most important data about the epidemiology of obesity in the world and in Europe. The consequences of obesity depend on the distribution pattern of the fat in the human body. Upper body obesity associated with visceral accumulation of fat is more dangerous as compared with mild gluteal obesity in young women. The subsequent chapters copmprise a simple overview of the pathogensis of obesity from the point of view of the energy metabolism and the genetic, epigenetic and environmental factors involved in the development of obesity. The consequences of obesity heavily increase health care and indirect economic costs in rich countries. The most important among these are type 2 diabetes mellitus, coronary heart diseas, hypertension, stroke and gout. The treatment of obesity is often a troublesome and frutrating process both for health-care providers and the affected people. Therefore the psychological and social aspects of overeating are of crucial importance to understand obesity and to elaborate successful ways to prevent it.
