Many women fall into the habit of taking care of others’ health and wellness needs before they take care of their own.
These 7 health tips can help you increase your chances of better health :-
1.) Stop smoking – Doing so will greatly reduce your chances of developing lung and heart disease.
2.) Stay on top of your annual wellness checks – This habit can increase the chances of early detection of disease or chronic conditions, which in turn increases your chances of doing something about any health problems you develop.
3.) Don’t skimp on sleep – Besides fighting the signs of aging, regular sleep promotes mental alertness and helps keep your stress levels in check.
4.) See your doctor every year – Even if you are feeling fine, regular wellness checks and health screenings can increase your chances of early detection of problems.
5.) Avoid the sun during 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. When you do have to be outside, wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a SPF of 30 or higher.
6.) Make physical activity an important part of your life. Even if you only have time for 20 minutes of exercise a day, a lifelong habit of regular activity benefits your healthy heart and helps you stay on top of your weight and your stress levels.
7.) Make good nutrition a priority. Avoid crash diets or overindulgence in favor of a realistic diet that features plenty of fruits and vegetables.
