| Short Tips to Keep You in Tip Top Health!
Anyone will tell you that nothing is more important than your health, and
staying healthy should be your #1 priority. These 25 little tips, tricks, and
pieces of advice should help you and those around you to stay healthy. 1. If
you feel like eating but are not sure if you’re really hungry, ask yourself if
you’d like to have an apple. If the answer is ‘no’, you’re most likely bored
rather than hungry. 2. Exercising before going to bed makes your muscles burn
more calories during the night. 3. Crying releases excess stress hormones and
is scientifically proven to ease mental strain. 4. A mid-day nap improves your
memory and reduces the chances of developing heart diseases. 5. If you’re
feeling anxious and stressed, eat a melon. Melons help relieve anxiety and
stress, plus they boost your metabolism. 6. Start learning a new language or
how to play an instrument. These actions help slow down the brain’s aging
process. 7. While driving, chew mint or cinnamon-flavored gum. It has been
proven to reduce feelings of frustration by 25%, increase your vigilance by
30%, and makes the drive feel 30% shorter. 8. You can ‘program’ your brain to
be happy in a simple way: think of three things you’re grateful for every day.
Do this for 21 days and you’ll notice the change. 9. Skipping a meal can cause
you to gain weight. Your body thinks you’re going through a famine, which
causes it to work in energy-saving mode and makes burning calories more
difficult. 10. Listening to music regularly is said to reduce the chances of
developing a brain tumor. 11. Drink two cups of cold water before a meal, as
this boosts metabolism by up to 30%. 12. If you suffer from headaches or
mental stress, lie down next to a wall with your legs elevated and leaning
against the wall at a 90-degree angle. Maintain this position for 5 minutes.
13. Running for half an hour a day will help you reduce 0.5kg (1 lb) of fat a
week. 14. Drinking a lot of water during the day helps you sleep better at
night. 15. Women who walk for an hour each day reduce their chances of getting
breast cancer by 15%. 16. Check your toothpaste for an ingredient called
“Novamin” – it is the only substance that can repair teeth. 17. Natural
pineapple juice is 5 times more effective than cough syrup. It can also prevent
baldness, and even the flu. 18. Make an effort to eat a home-cooked meal at
least 5 times a week. A recent study found that this may extend your life by a
whole decade. 19. If you’re trying to quit smoking, try the following method:
every time you feel the need to smoke a cigarette, lick a tiny bit of salt. The
urge to smoke should pass within a month. 20. A cold shower can help relieve
depression and also helps keep your skin and hair healthier. 21. If you’ve
stayed up all night, take a 15-minute nap before sunrise... It will trick your
body into thinking it slept enough. (Don’t do this too often.) 22. Having a
pet reduces stress, improves mental functions and extends your life expectancy.
23. Make an effort to be organized. The more organized you are – the less
likely you are to suffer from Alzheimer’s. 24. The first day of the week
defines your thinking patterns for the week. It’s best to exercise during that
day, to assure a healthy routine. 25. If you’ve worn shoes for a long period
of time, rub alcohol on your feet. This will help disinfect the regions that
are susceptible to fungus... |
