As you all know, ‘Pokemon Go’ has taken everyone’s attention and bringing them outside.
According to Business Insider, ‘Pokemon Go’ has more downloads than Tinder and it’s about to have more than Twitter! How unbelievable is that?! There are an incredible amount of people going out and “catching them all”!
Here are some benefits of playing ‘Pokemon Go’:
- Gets you out of the house – In this world of technology, people are going outside less and less which is unfortunate because spending time outside is beneficial to the human being. For example being outside provides Vitamin D. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, an increasing number of people are suffering from vitamin D deficiencies. This vitamin has several health benefits, including preventing kids from future bone problems, diabetes and even heart disease. With ‘Pokemon Go’, people are actually somewhat forced to leave their houses to play. Amazing!
- Provides a great source of exercise – Simply walking as a source of exercise allows you to maintain a healthy weight, strengthens your bones and muscles, improves your mood, balance and coordination, and may even prevent various conditions, including high blood pressure, heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
- It’s helping people make new friends – Just look at these people playing with others on the street:
- Your pets can even benefit – Take them along with you and they’ll benefit for the same reasons you do!
