American Football has health benefits for your whole body as it involves jumping, running, quick changes of direction, and more. It puts you through a high level of cardio and is an amazing form of aerobic and anaerobic exercising. People who need to do a lot of cardio tend to choose something as intense as football. It is one of the quickest ways of losing fat and getting a toned body as well. More and more people now stress on how mental health is important but don’t know how to promote its wellness. This sport is one of the best ways to maintain a great endorphin level and helps you have a stable mood and promote fitness and wellness.

According to studies, people who play American football have fewer chances to face conditions like depression or have an aggressive behavior in life. Of course, they are extremely aggressive towards their game, but it is aimed at maintaining every rule as the game demands. It improves body strength and maintains healthy bone density thereby preventing conditions like osteoporosis in old age.





Thus, playing American football keeps one strong and fights body fragility, nurturing one's muscles.

Increases Cognitive Brain Function: this sport helps increase skills in concentration, persistence, and self-discipline because it is a fast-paced game that requires quick decisions on the field. Even when the tempo appears to slow down, players are constantly looking for territorial advantages, trying to position themselves to receive a pass or to defend an area the opponent may attack.

This sport promotes sustainable lifestyles and encourage demand for sustainable consumption of goods and services as it raises awareness on the need for sustainable consumption and production of healthy foods for a healthy life and healthy people.
