HEALTH TIPS

1. Eat a healthy diet  
Making informed choices can help you improve the way you eat. Cutting down on foods high in salt, free sugars, saturated fats and trans-fatty acids may sound overwhelming at first, but easy steps add up − such as swapping a lunchtime soda for water. Eat at least five portions of a variety of fruits and vegetables every day. 

2. Avoid harmful use of alcohol 

 Alcohol consumption increases your risk of injury, as well as longer-term effects like liver damage, cancer, heart disease and mental illness. Any level of alcohol consumption carries risk. If you drink alcohol, you may wish to discuss your alcohol consumption with a health-care professional. 

3. Get enough sleep

The importance of getting enough quality sleep cannot be overstated.Poor sleep can drive insulin resistance, can disrupt your appetite hormones, and reduce your physical and mental performance.

4. Stay hydrated

Hydration is an important and often overlooked marker of health. Staying hydrated helps ensure that your body is functioning optimally and that your blood volume is sufficient .Drinking water is the best way to stay hydrated, as it’s free of calories, sugar, and additives.

5. Wash your hands.

Clean hands help stop the spread of infections. Make sure you wash your hands the right way using soap and water or an alcohol-based rub.

6. Exercise.

Doing aerobic exercise, or cardio, is one of the best things you can do for your mental and physical health.It’s particularly effective at reducing belly fat, the harmful type of fat that builds up around your organs. Reduced belly fat may lead to major improvements in your metabolic health.


7. Get regular check-ups 

See your health provider for regular, yearly check-ups. These visits can help you monitor your blood pressure to control and prevent hypertension − the number one silent killer in the world. Many people don’t know they have hypertension and without proper treatment, uncontrolled hypertension can lead to severe health complications later in life.
