         <description><![CDATA[<div>Sleep impacts physical health as without a proper sleeping schedule (7-9 hours), your body will not function to its full potential. The risks of not sleeping enough for long periods of time are monumental as well, with the chances of heart failure and high blood pressure raised. This means that on top of just feeling unenergized, you will be at a higher chance of dying by an avoidable factor.<br><br>Eating impacts physical health in many ways with an un-proper diet. This includes raising the risk for certain health conditions, including heart disease and diabetes. Having a proper diet also helps maintain a healthy weight, with more fat being more uncomfortable for the overweight person.<br><br>Exercise, apart from the obvious aesthetic improvements to the body strengthens your heart and improves your blood circulation (more oxygen). Having more oxygen also lessens the risk of heart disease, high cholesterol, coronary heart disease, and heart attack. Exercise also provides you with more muscle strength over a period of time, allowing you to lift more &amp; for longer periods.<br><br>Being stress free means that you will be at lower risk of hypertension, heart attack, &amp; stroke. This is because longer periods of stress can take higher tolls on the body, including higher blood pressure and an increase in heart rate. This raises the risk for certain diseases (as they were shown), which plays a role on the life expectancy of a person.<br><br>Avoiding drugs is one of the best things you can do to your body. Apart from mental, emotional, and social affects, taking drugs can impact/cause harm to all organs in your body, including your brain, lungs, throat and heart. Drugs can also cause cancer (most notably from inhaling drugs) as well as infections &amp; even death. Because illegal drugs are not controlled, some risk factors and how they impact physical health may even be worse than listed.<br><br>Controlling your weight impacts your physical health in many ways. As discussed in how eating impacts health, excess fat can put a strain on the body and organs, making life more uncomfortable. Apart from feeling uncomfortable, you will be at risk for high LDL cholesterol, high blood pressure, Osteoarthritis, and many other extreme health problems that come with being overweight.<br><br>Saving sex for marriage impacts physical health most notably through being able to better avoid sexually-transmitted infectons, or STI's. These can include Genital herpes, Human papillomavirus infection, Chlamydia, and AIDS. Having sex before marriage (especially in more pronounced amounts)&nbsp;raises your risk of contracting these infections.<br><br>https://www.betterhealth.vic.gov.au/health/healthyliving/How-drugs-affect-your-body&nbsp;<br>https://health.clevelandclinic.org/happens-body-dont-get-enough-sleep/#:~:text=Some%20of%20the%20most%20serious,function%20and%20lower%20sex%20drive.&nbsp;<br>https://medlineplus.gov/benefitsofexercise.html#:~:text=Exercise%20strengthens%20your%20heart%20and,blood%20pressure%20and%20triglyceride%20levels.&nbsp;<br>https://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/effects/index.html&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Mental health is the wellbeing of your psychological, emotional, and social well being. Having good mental health allows you to view the world and make daily choices in a good way. Not having good mental health means you may be unable to control thoughts and provide excuses for things you are doing. This can include overeating, inactivity, trouble controlling emotions, &amp; not finishing needed work assigned to you. Having good mental health allows you to look past excuses &amp; understand when you need to accomplish something, especially work, respecting others, and eating correctly.<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Being pro-active with physical health can take several forms. This includes:<br><br>Exercising. Exercising for even a few hours each week lessens your risk of certain diseases, helping you to live a longer &amp; better (quality) of life. On top of reducing risks, exercise also helps you build muscle and become more flexible. This means that when you are older and some people around you can not function to their fullest, you will be the opposite.<br><br>Avoiding OR moderating foods which will harm your health. This can include junk food (pizza, sweets, etc.) and everyday meals which can be fatty in larger amounts (taco's, tamales). Avoiding or moderating these foods helps you to reduce the risk for future diseases. Coupled with exercising, you further reduce the risk of certain diseases.<br><br>Paying attention to your surroundings. This can include crossing the street or walking without looking at your phone. Not paying attention to your surroundings can lead to injury or even death, as has occurred in the past. Paying attention to your surroundings allows you to know when there is danger or if there might be danger, compared to that of not even knowing what is in front of you until you reach it.<br><br>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6481017/ </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Sometimes, being reactive can SEEM easier than being pro-active, when it is really the opposite. Some ways people are reactive for each component can include:<br><br>Relaxing after not being able to sleep. Calming your mind after being restless in bed (through reading, meditation) is an example of reacting to a situation that has already occurred. After relaxing, you will be able to sleep without tossing and turning.<br><br>Deciding to sleep early after not sleeping well the day before. This is another example of being reactive as you are again reacting in a way to fix something after it has already happened, which in this case is not feeling rested. Deciding to sleep early would fix the problem or alleviate the symptoms, letting you feel rested.<br><br>Deciding to go on your phone after not being able to sleep. This not only lowers your chances of sleeping, but it creates a habit which will continue unless stopped. You are reacting to not being able to sleep, although in this case in not a good way at all.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Sleep impacts mental health because without proper sleep, your cognitive skills (attention, learning &amp; memory) are not working to their full potential. This means that you will have a much harder time dealing with even minor stress-causing events, and can make you lash out/develop negative thoughts toward yourself or others.<br><br>Eating impacts mental health because without a proper diet you can have more mood swings and have trouble concentrating in school. This means that you will ultimately be more irritable (such as with sleep) and be distracted easily (which can result in less work done).&nbsp;<br><br>Exercise impacts mental health in many ways, including through increasing discipline/focus, reducing anxiety/depression, and improving cognitive mood. Apart from obvious physical benefits, developing a program (exercise plan) improves discipline as you are working yourself toward a rigorous activity (x) times a week. Exercise helps you feel less depressed because the body releases cannabis-like chemicals (endogenous cannabinoids) which help improve your sense of mood. Working out is basically a mild anti-depressant in itself.<br><br>Being stress free impacts mental health in many ways, including allowing you to be more focused, being less depressed, and being a more confident you. If you are stressed, you will have a much harder time focusing on one thing instead of what is making you stressed. Over time, you can start becoming depressed due to constant stress from what is distracting you AND possibly even stress from being distracted. This means you can be less confident around people due to constant stress and guilt. Being stress-free is one of the most important factors towards mental health, possibly even all of the components due to your motivation to do good things.&nbsp;<br>Stress in itself is not a good thing at all, and can create a chain of problems which begin in your mind, or mental state.<br><br>Avoiding drugs is also a crucial step in keeping your mental health in a good state. Long-term drug use, apart from dopamine deficiency, leads to an obsessive and compulsive behavior to seek out more drugs, affecting the way you think. This in turn distracts you from everyday activities, including work, sleep, &amp; social interaction with others due to the addiction. Being drug-free avoids these problems in a pro-active manner, rather than being reactive by reacting to the problems after you have already taken the drug.<br><br>Weight control is also a critical aspect of keeping Mental health in a well state. This is due to the fact that being overweight &amp; eating compulsively is linked to higher rates of depression &amp; anxiety, meaning you will be at higher risk for mental illnesses. On top of this, not controlling your weight is also in correlation with your discipline and thoughts on eating healthy. Not controlling your weight adds onto these train of thoughts, which can bring anxiety &amp; difficulty emotionally, physically, and socially.<br><br>Saving sex for marriage is also an important factor of keeping your mental health in check. As with other factors, not controlling aspects of your life can lead to anxiety and depression. Being diagnosed with a sexually transmitted disease carries a degree of stigma and shame. This guilt can lead to further mental health problems including anxiety and depression. In comparison, saving sex for marriage reduces this risk and does not bring about the stress or guilt of having the STD(s).<br><br>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2656591/&nbsp;<br>https://pacifichealthsystems.com/blog/how-illicit-drugs-can-affect-your-mental-health/#:~:text=Prolonged%20use%20of%20certain%20illicit,withdrawal%20that%20mimic%20mental%20disorders.<br>https://www.columbiapsychiatry.org/news/how-sleep-deprivation-affects-your-mental-health#:~:text=Sleep%20helps%20maintain%20cognitive%20skills,to%20perceive%20the%20world%20accurately.<br><br>https://www.aetna.com/health-guide/food-affects-mental-health.html#:~:text=When%20you%20stick%20to%20a,symptoms%20of%20depression%20and%20anxiety.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The Cardiovascular system is the body system most impacted physically. This is due to the importance of the cardiovascular system on the human body, in which even a slight disruption can cause serious damage. Even daily activities such as falling, exercising, &amp; eating correctly affect the cardiovascular system in either a good or bad way.&nbsp; For example, a pro-longed unhealthy diet can build up plaque in the cardiovascular system, therefore making the person more at risk for deadly events/factors. </div>]]></description>

Mental health revolves around the brain and how messages are sent, meaning that disruptions or how you view/make choices all depend on the brain and its connection to the Central Nervous System.&nbsp;This wouldn't be the same with the nervous, reproduction, or muscular system, as they do not have anything to do with mental health and how it would be impacted if mental changes were underwent.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Sleep impacts emotional health in a critical way, as without proper sleep you will have a harder time reacting to events in a positive way, similar to that of mental health. Because of this, you will have a harder time controlling emotions, leading to things you may not want to say or always feeling down.<br><br>Eating impacts emotional health as well. Eating healthy allows for fewer mood fluctuations, allowing you to better focus in school and/or work. This causes less risk for depression &amp; anxiety, giving you stronger emotional health on top of already existing physical and mental benefits.<br><br>Exercise impacts emotional health by improving self-esteem and cognitive function (ability to think, focus). This is because the body feels better due to chemicals that are released during exercising, giving you a better mood and lower anxiety.<br><br>Being stress free impacts emotional health in a crucial way. This is the case as having stress obviously negatively impacts emotion &amp; mental health, creating risks for depression &amp; worse moods. However, being stress free removes these risks, allowing you to focus more on reacting in a positive way.<br><br>Avoiding drugs impacts emotional health as well. Taking drugs can impact part of the brain known as the limbic system, in which mood and emotion can be harmed in a negative way. This includes mood swings, emotional outbursts, &amp; a depressed mood.<br><br>Controlling your weight is also crucial for emotional health. Excess weight can bring many health risks, including high blood pressure, high LDL cholesterol, Type 2 diabetes, and many more. Being able to control your weight to a safe and normal level allows you to live a higher quality life due to less risks of certain diseases.&nbsp;<br><br>Saving sex for marriage impacts emotional health because the infection of STD's also brings emotional harm to the infected person. A positive STD test can bring feelings of intense negativity, due to the prominent nature of how you got that infection &amp; risks associated with it. Saving sex for marriage consequently reduces these chances of risk compared to pre-marital sex.&nbsp;<br><br>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1470658/#:~:text=Exercise%20improves%20mental%20health%20by,self%2Desteem%20and%20cognitive%20function.&amp;text=Exercise%20has%20also%20been%20found,self%2Desteem%20and%20social%20withdrawal.<br><br>https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2930645/ <br><br>https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/sleepless-nights-try-stress-relief-techniques#:~:text=%E2%80%9CActivities%20that%20switch%20on%20the,body%20and%20mind%20calm%20down.%E2%80%9D<br><br><br></div>]]></description>

In turn, other people perceive you as more socially repulsive, further increasing the grave social-isolation impact of sleep loss."&nbsp;<br><br>Eating impacts social health by giving you motivation/the want for social interaction.
