The World Stroke Organization (WSO) states that one in four adults will experience a stroke in their lifetime, and this is why the official World Stroke Day on October 29 aims to raise awareness about the ailment worldwide. In simple words, a stroke happens when the blood supply to your brain is cut off, resulting in temporary or permanent damage to your brain cells. A person can recover from a stroke, but those who do not recover either suffer from one disability or more or, in the worst case scenario, they die. World Stroke Day reinforces the idea of stroke being preventable. One of the best things we can do to reduce our chances of getting a stroke is becoming physically active. Exercising regularly and eating or drinking right will help us not to be part of the one-in-four statistic. Stroke is the number one cause of disabilities, and it is also the second-highest reason behind people dying from a disease.
