As footballers, our demanding training regimens underscore the importance of proactive healthcare. Amb. Ogo Clarkson, CEO of Topsportsafrik, stresses the need for regular check-ups.
The tragic losses of Gift Atulewa, a former Nigeria U20 player and midfielder for Bayelsa United and Warri Wolves, Coach Kennedy Akpovina of FC Planner and Delta State Teqball Coach, and Ikene Obaja aka (oyoyo) another Warri Wolves player, serve as stark reminders. Reports indicate their untimely deaths resulted from unmanaged high blood pressure and elevated sugar levels.
Amb. Clarkson notes, “Humans often stray from God’s plan, embracing harmful habits that shorten lifespans and invite self-destruction. Pollution, refined foods, and human-inflicted harm reduce life expectancy of 80-100 years to below.”
Research and medical reports emphasize the importance of proactive healthcare when one is 40 years above.
Let’s assess our health habits:
– When did you last check your blood pressure?
– Monitor your sugar levels?
– Evaluate your diet’s nutritional balance?
Our daily choices often prioritize sugar and carbohydrates over wholesome options. Acknowledging this reality is crucial for informed decisions.
To navigate healthcare effectively, expert guidance is essential.
There is need toinvite medical professionals to share valuable insights on this platform.
Let’s honor Gift Atulewa’s memory by prioritizing our well-being.
R.I.P Gift Atulewa.
