Stimulate your body, heart and mind with just 5 simple things.
Unhealthy lifestyle. It’s a general contributor to our biggest health problems: stroke, diabetes, heart disease, cancer. The nation’s top doctors recommend keeping your heart, body, and mind in peak health.
Here’s some great advice from top medical researchers.
exercise daily
You are brushing your teeth every day; In the same way, exercise as a habit of the daily routine. Turn off the TV or computer and exercise for at least 30 minutes a day.
To work your heart, it has to be aerobic exercise. You have many ways: biking, walking, jogging, elliptical machine, rowing machine, swimming. But don’t feel like you agree to be an athlete. Walking is the best exercise. Get ten minutes here and there throughout the day. Everything counts.
Start with something simple, like parking at the far end of the parking lot, so you have those extra steps to the door. Get the stairs a flight or two instead of the elevator. If you use public transportation, get off one stop earlier and walk the rest. Go out at lunchtime for a walk. Or take a walk with your added friends or wife after work. You will get a stress reduction and relaxation benefit.
Healthy diet
Stop eating junk food and high fat fast food. Foods high in saturated fat, salt, and cholesterol damage the brain, the heart, and the entire heart. There is no acceptance around you. You have to modify them with healthy foods: lots of fruits, vegetables, fish, nuts, olive oil, what we call the Mediterranean diet. Eat like an Italian, a Spanish, a Greek! Enjoy!
weightloss
Heavy body weight puts your health at high risk. When you eat a lot of calories than you burn, you get fat, it’s that simple. You have to eat less. You have to exercise more. You have to move to make changes on these issues, but you have to do it to help prevent serious health problems like heart disease, diabetes, or stroke.
Regular physical exams
Tell your doctor your family medical history. Know your own risk factors and the screening tests you need. Women can accept mammograms for breast cancer and Pap smears for cervical cancer. Men can accept PSA tests for prostate cancer. Accepted screening tests for colorectal cancer should begin at age 50, perhaps earlier if colon cancer runs in your family. You may also need regular tests for diabetes, blood pressure, and cholesterol. Make sure your vaccinations are up to date. You may need flu and pneumonia shots, depending on your age.
less stress
When people say they’re too busy to exercise, they tell me that extra things are crowding out what’s important in life: They’re not spending time with family and friends; do not get enough exercise; do not eat well; don’t sleep well All of these things reduce stress in your life, and that’s critical to your health and longevity.
To be healthy, we charge to set limits and set limits on working hours. We shouldn’t be working so hard that we’re not disturbing the things that make us healthy. This is important advice for people caring for elderly parents or young children as well. Make sure you are getting adequate exercise and sleep and not trying to do too much.
