Feel Better & Stay Healthy
|
This article is not just one person's idea
of science or what medication or supplements you should take, or what
your diet should be. We just want you to pay attention, know all
necessary information and make informed decision about your health and
available resources, remedies and healthy choices because we really do
want everyone to be healthy.
Don't we all have the
best intentions? The challenge is sorting through that conflicting,
oftentimes confusing information from multiple sources. Everyone wants
what's right for them—and, oh yeah, whatever it is has to work!
Feeling better and stay
healthy is all about daily choices. We all know that a lot about being
healthy comes down to taking care of ourselves: what we eat, how much
we eat, how much physical activity we get and how we help our mind and
our body to maintain balance. The nutrition and physical activity
choices we make every day affect our physical and mental health. The
more we know, the better choices we can make.
Below are links to
information you need to know to make smart choices in your life and
help your body and your mind to achieve desired performance. We
need to learn to make more room in our lives for things that make us
happy, healthy, and productive. We need to take charge of our health
and our destiny.
Together, let's find our way to Feel Better & Stay Healthy!

Even small
changes in your life will add up to big results.
Regular physical
activity helps improve your overall health and fitness, and reduces
your risk for many chronic diseases.
By picking
physical activities you enjoy and that match your abilities, it will
help ensure that you stick with them.
There is no need
to think of strenuous exercise or boring workouts.
Instead, try to do the fun activities you enjoy and watch the health
benefits
follow!
Eating right and
being physically active may reduce your risk for heart disease, high
blood pressure, diabetes, osteoporosis, certain cancers, and being
overweight or obese.
If you eat 100 more food calories a day than you
burn, you'll gain about 1 pound in a month. That's about 10 pounds in a
year. The bottom line is that to lose weight, it's important to reduce
calories and increase physical activity.
It’s important to make smart food choices and watch portion sizes
wherever you are—at the grocery store, at work, in your favorite
restaurant, or running errands.
In a restaurant, opt for steamed, grilled, or broiled dishes instead of
those that are fried or sautéed.
On a long commute or shopping trip, pack some fresh fruit, cut-up
vegetables, string cheese sticks,
or a handful of unsalted nuts—to help you avoid impulsive, less
healthful snack choices.
At the store, plan ahead by buying a variety of nutrient-rich foods for
meals and snacks throughout the week.
Wherever we are
in life… whatever the reason… we can prevent many bad health
consequences and gain quality time to enjoy things that really matter
to us. Whether we are 15, 25, or 65, any time is a good time to start!
