Healthy Food

Everybody knows, tasty food is not always healthy. It’s often either too salty or too sweet. Sometimes it’s too fat as well. Useful meal includes fresh fruit and vegetables, cereals, meat, cheese, eggs, fish. It gives us lots of vitamins, minerals and energy. So, it’s up to you, if you want to live longer, it’s important to uderstand what you eat.

Going in for Sports

It’s rather obvious, if you train your body regularly, you keep fit and feel healthy. Such people are often in good mood and ready to start everything quickly. They are active, energetic and cheerful. Even if you don’t have enough time to go to the gym, just do some physical exercises at home every morning.

Good Rest

After a hard or hot day we need having a good rest. One can enjoy taking a warm shower, sitting in a cosy armchair, listening to favourite music, drinking herbal tea, whatever. Leave all your problems outside, don’t worry and … you know!...

Clean Water

Every person should drink 2 litres (not less) of fresh clean water. It can also be juice, milk, tea, soup. Our organisms start working faster, every cell gets its source of life and we feel ourselves healthier and better.

No Smoking, alcohol and taking drugs

Harmful habits cause lots of unpleasant problems for your health. Of course they help to relax and see the life from another side during some period, but … it’s a false side, you know. AIDS, cancer and other deseases kill us and there is no way back and no chance to change the difficult situation… It really hurts!

Be Healthy!!!

To sum up, they say, the greatest wealth is health. It’s certainly TRUE! Your life is unique, it’s only in your hands. Only you make a choice, so you decide!
