Nutrition and lifestyle experts suggest seven easy steps to maintaining a healthier you.
Drink More Water
Water is essential to health because it carries oxygen and nutrients throughout the body. Drink at least eight glasses daily.
Eat the Rainbow
Satisfy your eyes and nutritional needs with a colorful variety of fruits and vegetables that contain essential vitamins and minerals.
Eat Intact Grains
Oats, brown rice and many other grains contain all the essential antioxidants, vitamins and minerals you need for a healthier diet.
Breathe Deeply
Oxygen is vital, but most of us aren’t breathing properly. As you take a deep breath, fill up your lungs and expand your abdomen. Hold the breath, then exhale slowly.
Get Regular Check-Ups
In addition to a yearly physical, get regular blood tests to check sugar and vitamin levels.
