With all this talk in the media about how people are getting fatter and exercising less, some of us might be wondering whether we're doing enough to help ourselves stay healthy.
Images of trim celebrities in revealing clothing and a whole host of products that can help us lose weight (usually as part of a calorie controlled diet) are being constantly drilled into us through media exposure, causing a notion of body consciousness.
When it comes to exercise, there are worries that there will be an obesity epidemic in the UK, which could very well cause a rise in insurance rates.
Indeed, cheap life insurance risks becoming a thing of the past, for as numbers of those of us with certain conditions - such as diabetes - continue to rise, so the cost of policies could also increase along with your waistline.
Keeping a healthy and active lifestyle, exercising moderately several days a week and watching what you eat can be beneficial to your body and your bank account.
Experts recommend that 20 minutes of 'moderate' exercise throughout the week can help reduce the risk of certain conditions, as well as release endorphins that can contribute to making you feel better - both in body and mind.
Life insurance quotes can be hit-or-miss when it comes to your physical health. Taking small steps to ensure you stay in good health could also be good news for your finances.
Past or hereditary conditions can contribute greatly to an insurers' decision. It is advisable to let your insurer know of anything that could potentially affect your cover.
