Most often, new year resolutions revolve around health. The health of young Malaysians is vital as they are the backbone of our economy, realizing their career and personal goals, besides shouldering the responsibility of taking care of their families. Thus, an active way of life is an important determinant of health status and nutritional well-being. According to a study by the World Health Organization in 2018 and published by The Lancet Global Health Journal, more than 1.4 billion adults are putting themselves at heightened risk of deadly diseases by lack of physical activities and enjoying an increasingly comfortable, sedentary lifestyle. It was cited that sufficient physical activity is a leading risk factor for non-communicable diseases and has a negative effect on mental health and quality of life.
Living a healthy lifestyle measures all aspects of health including exercise, nutrition, stress and sleep management amongst others. In conjunction with Chinese New Year this year, Huawei is helping young people keep track of their overall health and well-being with the Huawei Three Health Treasures.
“Huawei is bringing the gift of health to meet one’s fitness and health needs, especially for our younger users who are more in tuned with technology. Bring home the Huawei Three Health Treasures – Huawei Mate 20 + Huawei Watch GT Sport + Huawei Health mobile app – as a gift for loved ones or reward and motivation for an improved and healthier self,” said Matthew Ng, Deputy Country Director, Huawei Consumer Business Group.
“Nowadays, staying healthy can be effortless with the right tools in place. Therefore, we are offering the Huawei Three Health Treasures to help users start the year on the right foot with the best fitness and wellness plan and live a healthier lifestyle through technology,” he added.
How consumers can make healthy lifestyle choices this Chinese New Year
Many of the festive treats are rich and high in sugar and fat. Some snacks can even contain calories similar to a moderate meal. Be aware of the food consumption and increase physical activities level to stay healthy.
Smart Diet
- Reunion dinners are a staple of Chinese New Year – this annual gathering of families usually includes decadent food which we allow ourselves to indulge in once a year. With HiVision, users can monitor their calorie intake with Huawei’s latest flagship device, the Mate 20. This will help you choose healthier snacks to ensure your fitness goals are on track. For example, users can utilise the HiVision feature to portion out typical servings of festive treats like ‘yee sang’ according to the calorie count.
Scientific Sports
- For those who are looking for a convenient way to track their fitness goals besides staying fit and healthy once the festivities are over, the Huawei Watch GT provides user real-time coaching from introductory to advanced running courses as well as guidance training and time-movement effect feedback.
- Its TruSeen™ 3.0 heart rate monitoring technology tracks users’ active and resting heart rate. Combining innovative PPG optical and hardware design and AI algorithms, the solution can monitor the heart rate of users in real time with high precision. It also uses invisible lights to monitor users’ heart rate during sleep, which is more intimate than other traditional methods.
- Users simply have to wear the Huawei Watch GT during their fitness routines at the gym or while running at the park, and the Huawei Health mobile app will help you with the rest. Get back to shape and lose the weight gained over the Chinese New Year celebrations in no time.
Health Report
- As the celebrations and reunion parties go full swing, make full use of the available health reports by assessing the status of one’s health throughout Chinese New Year. This allows users to have fun until midnight, worry-free. Why stop there when users can continue keeping track and ensure their fitness goals remain throughout the year? Take charge of the health for a great start to the year.
- Users can also benefit from its Intelligent Sleep Statistics, the Huawei TruSleep™ 2.0 Scientific Sleep that identifies common sleep related issues and provides more than 200 potential suggestions for them to sleep better. According to a national sleep survey done by Nielsen Malaysia in 2018, nine in 10 Malaysians (89%) suffer from one or more sleep problems
- The Huawei TruSleep™ 2.0 technology was developed through a joint-study with Harvard Medical School CDB Centre to produce a brilliant sleep monitor programme for every cycle of sleep. Raising awareness about the issue, the problem can then be addressed to prevent it from happening with the use of technology.
