HEALTHY

We  all  want  to  be  fit  and  healthy  but  never  seem  to  have  the  time.  Work  usually  takes  all  our  

time,  and  by  the  time  we  are  home  all  we  want  to  do  is  stay  on  the  couch,  watch  TV,  and  eat  

comfort  food  “AKA  :  FATTY  FOOD”.  Starting  off  with  simple  things  like  eating  healthy  food,  

drinking  plenty  of  water,  and  walking  makes  a  huge  difference  in  one’s  life.  It’s  time  to  change  

your  lifestyle  by  adding  these  5  simple  ways  to  your  daily  lives.  

 

Drink WATER!

70%  of  the  human  body  is  made  out  of  water.  Your  blood,  lungs,  

and  brain  all  contain  water.  Lack  of  water  in  your  system  might  

have  a  negative  impact  on  those  organs.  Water  is  responsible  to  

transport  oxygen  to  cells,  nutrients  to  organs,  and  also  detoxifies  

you  body.

Yes  exercising  is  time  consuming  and  you  would  rather  spend  your  free  time  relaxing,  but  

exercising  doesn’t  only  mean  going  to  the  gym  and  working  out  for  1-­‐2  hours.  30  minutes  of  

walking  everyday  is  enough.  Walking  is  necessary  for  blood  flow  in  your  body  and  moves  your  

muscles.  It  also  reduces  the  chance  of  getting  cancer,  stroke,  heart  disease,  and  diabetes.  

                                                                                                                                                   

Eat healthy food  

Avoid  eating  from  fast  food  restaurants  as  much  as  possible,  but  if  you  had  to  pick  something  

that  is  fresh  like  a  salad,  or  fruits.  Fast  food  is  full  of  unnecessary  fats  

which  cause  weight  gain,  and  in  some  cases  heart  problems.  Eat  fresh  

homemade  food  its  safer  and  better  for  your  health.  

Drink Juice  

Take  5  minutes  every  morning  and  put  the  fruits  you  love  with  some  ice  in  the  blender.  Juice  is  

known  for  increasing  energy,  so  instead  of  drinking  energy  drinks  which  have  side  effects  on  

your  health  …  drink  juice,  its  full  of  energy,  gives  you  a  better  looking  skin,  and  a  better  health.

Substitute

Try  substituting  some  of  the  regular  things  you  eat  by  something  healthier.  Buy  low-­‐fat  or  

skimmed  dairy  products  instead  of  full-­‐fat,  use  virgin  olive  oil  for  cooking  instead  of  the  cooking  

oil,  and  also  try  to  adding  fruits  and  vegetables  in  everything  you  eat  as  much  as  possible.
