No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The health benefits of regular physical activity and a healthy diet are well established in literature. Regular physical activity and a healthy diet may reduce the risk of certain non-communicable diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and cancer, and contribute to mental health and emotional benefits, as well as social wellbeing.

Despite the health benefits of regular physical activity and healthy diet, most of the Hong Kong people live a sedentary and unhealthy lifestyle and do not meet the WHO's recommendation on physical activity for health and on fruit and vegetables intake.

This study is to examine the physical activity and dietary attitudes and behavioural patterns of the Hong Kong community and provide a clear direction for future health education and awareness projects and campaigns aimed towards improving the general health of the Hong Kong community.
