What Are Some Of The Rules For A Healthy Living?

Medical experts recommends the following rules for healthy living:

1. Don't smoke. If you smoke, best to quit now. Smoking has been found as a leading cause of death in the US. It is a major factor in the development of coronary heart disease and in cancers of the lung, mouth, esophagus, throat, bladder, and cervix. It has also been found that smoking accelerates the aging of the skin, bones, and of the lungs. It makes you look and feel older than your actual age.
   
2. If you drink alcohol, drink only in moderation. It is never recommended for a pregnant woman to drink any alcohol. If you are driving or working, alcohol lessens your alertness, thus, increases your exposure to untoward incidents.
   
3. Find some exercise that you enjoy. Do it at least 30 minutes each day, at least five times a week. And of course, do it consistently.
   
4. Eat a wide variety of naturally occurring foods, including whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables. Be moderate with fatty foods. Buy a juicer, make and drink fresh vegetable juices daily.
   
5. Keep your body trim. As it has been said, the longer your waist, the shorter your life.
6. See your doctor and have your regular medical check-ups.
