🚶#ICYMI - The 37 Mile Challenge in May is happening NOW! There is still time to join our virtual community of inspiring people all getting active and raising funds to help the 37 million Americans with kidney disease, like Pal, Senior Director, ANI Pharmaceuticals, Inc. East Windsor! Q: Do you have a personal connection to kidney disease? A: "My uncle in India experienced kidney failure, which caused a great deal of stress for our entire family as we worked to get him a kidney transplant. The rise in diabetes and blood pressure is unfortunately leading to a corresponding increase in kidney problems. Because of this, prevention is crucial to managing this growing challenge." Q: Why are you participating in the 37 Mile Challenge? A: “Let's raise awareness about kidney health! Maintaining a healthy lifestyle with a nutritious diet, regular exercise like yoga or daily walks, is crucial for overall well-being and can help prevent kidney problems. My wife and I enjoy daily walks and yoga, which we spread throughout the day. These habits contribute to our weight management and overall health.” Q: How do you plan on getting active during the challenge? A: “My wife and I are already committed to daily walks and yoga, incorporating them throughout our day. This 37-mile challenge is an exciting opportunity for us! We'll keep up our walks, but also use this as a springboard to spread the message of healthy living through good diet and habits.” Q: What do you wish others knew about AKF and the 37 Mile Challenge? A: “A nutritious diet, regular exercise (like yoga or daily walks), are all essential for a healthy body and mind. If you're new to exercise, consider starting with a 37-mile challenge – it's a great starting point, and you can gradually increase the distance as you get fitter. Walking offers more than just physical benefits. It can boost your mood and spark creativity. Listen to music, audiobooks, or inspiring speeches while you walk. You can even record your thoughts – who knows, they might turn into a book someday! Some of my own poem collection in Tamil actually originated from ideas that came to me while walking.” Thank you, Pal, for your support and for helping us spread awareness about the 37 million Americans with kidney disease.
