Tip 2 Never ignore pain
If your head starts to ache or any other part of your body, never ignore it. If you can’t pin down the cause, see a doctor. Body pain is the best way your body communicates with you. While it is true that the body can heal itself in most simple instances, there may be a more serious reason for the pain which may need medical intervention. You should also schedule an annual check-up especially once you pass the age of 30.
Tip 3 Physical Exercise is a must
Exercise can take many forms so don’t worry if you’re not the physically active type. There are many cases of walking around the mall (in comfortable shoes) daily for an hour that has actually helped a person get into shape. The objective is to stretch your muscles once in a while and break out into a sweat. This can be done by swimming, jogging, walking up and down stairs, doing the grocery shopping, or running after a toddler. Use your imagination but move your body!
Tip 4 Eat fresh or natural as much as possible
If you can avoid processed food with preservatives or extenders, do it. This means no frozen food and as little fast food meals as possible. Ideally, you should grow your own vegetables so you know it’s chemical-free and fertilized naturally. If you can’t do this, then buy organic. It’s a wee bit more expensive but you can save since you won’t need to buy a ton of commercial vitamins and supplements.
These 4 healthy living tips should be your basic guideline to enjoying life without feeling bogged down by scare tactics from marketing hype and media pressure to buy this or that new “health product.”
