In order to avoid having an unhealthy lifestyle, you must dedicate a good amount of time to nutrition and exercise. The healthiness of food and drink choices undoubtedly influences the shape ones body is in. For example, if an individual consumes foods that are high in calories regularly, they will have poor health because calories add up and contribute to obesity, diabetes, heart attacks, and other negative conditions. In addition, because these foods do not contain essential vitamins which the body needs for strength, a person may not live as long as he or she should. In contrast, people who eat the recommended portions of food displayed on the food pyramid, such as fruits and grains, have a well-balanced diet, thus they intake all of the necessary materials which the body needs to thrive and remain healthy. You also must exercise regularly in order to have a healthy body. Exercise helps to circulate the blood and keep the physical condition of the body parts intact. For example, lifting weights at the gym will increase the strength of ones arms and allow this person to complete more tasks related to strength.

No, it is not.

G6PD (Glucose-6-Phosphate-Dehydrogenase) is an enzyme which protects the red blood cells under specific circustances.

These specific circumstances include

- certain drugs/medications (sulfonamides, antimalarial drugs, salicylates)

- diet (fava beans)

- infections

- fever

- acidosis.

Individuals, born with a deficiency of this enzyme, are not efficiently protected. Meaning, if they are subjected for a longer time to any of these specific substances or conditions, their unprotected red blood cells could suffer damage. Due to this damage, the red blood cells are destroyed - leading to bleeding (hemolytic episodes).

This inborn deficiency is X-linked, which means, it primarily effects males, partial involvement or carrier situation applies to females.

This aspect is similar to that of Thalassemia, as Thalassemia is also an inherited condition, which effects males primarily, and females are mainly the carriers.

But, G6PD is a deficiency of an enzyme (Glucose-6-Phosphate-Dehydrogenase), and Thalassemia is caused by a genetic fault, which impairs the synthesis (production) of haemoglobin, the red blood cells' oxygen-carrying molecules.

While G6PD deficiency is active only at the above specific circumstances, Thalassemia is constantly present.
