Did You Know that …
Compared with people who are inactive, those who are physically active
- live longer and are happier;
- experience improvement in pain, sleep, and energy;
- are physically healthier; and
- experience improvement in day-to-day functioning.
This applies particularly to those affected by arthritis. Despite having these facts supported by evidence, arthritis sufferers’ most common reason for inactivity is that arthritis limits their physical activity and recreational pursuits.
So, if you have arthritis — including rheumatoid arthritis — or if you know someone who does — join the American College of Rheumatology In this year’s annual World Arthritis Day. It has the theme “Move to Improve” and is being held on October 12, 2011!
