5 tips to live a long and healthy life

[Chibson]

As good as modern medical technology is, it can never save you from the problems caused by a life style that is unhealthy. Instead of getting a modern medical fix for every problem, it is far better to live in such a way that you will hardly ever fall ill.

An ounce of prevention is certainly better than a pound of cure. Here are seven tips on how to live a long and healthy life. In addition, the same life style that helps you to avoid illness also helps you to lose weight.

1. Get Enough Exercise

In the past people had to use their physical bodies in the course of their normal work. But today someone may get up, go to work in a car, then sit down, get up to go home in the car and when arriving at home, sit down again for the rest of the day. In such a life there is no physical labor. This physical inactivity is one of the main reasons for a host of diseases. Sport, running. walking and other things must be added to our life if our normal work does not require us to exert ourselves physically. I

2. Go to sleep when you feel sleepy

This may sound simple, but many people stay up late even when their body is telling them that it is time to sleep. Yoga and Ayurvedic doctors also say that it is better to sleep in the night and be active during the day. However, people such as students will take coffee and stimulants to study late into the night. Others develop the habit of remaining active at night and sleeping during the day. While we can do this, it eventually takes a toll on health. Alternative health doctors say that this kind of unnatural living is one of the contributing factors in the causation of cancer and other diseases

3. Eat when you feel hungry

This is also a simple idea, but once again we often go against the messages of the body. If you eat out of habit or due to social pressure at certain time of the day, even when you have no real appetite, then you will not digest your food properly. Acidity and indigestion begin, and this contributes to the likelihood of other more complex diseases taking root. Having an appetite is actually a sign of good health, but if you have no appetite you should wait a bit and then eat. (If you have no appetite even after awaiting a reasonable amount of time, then you should consult a doctor because something is wrong.)

4.Fast on a Regular, Systematic Basis

If you would ask any person to work 365 days per year without any rest, they would complain and say that they must have some rest or else they will break down. But we have never bothered to ask or to think about our digestive organs which we compel to work day after day without a rest. They cannot protest the way a person would to his boss, but they do give us signals that they cannot work non-stop. When we ignore those signals and still compel them to work, those organs break down. That is why periodic fasting is necessary. Refrain from eating for one complete day. This gives a rest to your digestive organs and also helps in the elimination of wastes from your body. Regular fasting allows a person to gain extra time for intellectual or spiritual pursuits. Fasting is not for hermits in a cave, but is a sensible practice that anyone can practice.

5. Wash with cool water before going to bed

As mentioned above, proper sleep is essential for the maintenance of health. If you wash your important motor and sensory organs (hands, arms, eyes, legs, mouth, genitals) before sleep using cool water, this will relax you and prepare you for deep sleep.

To live a longer life is not determine by humans, it's the decision of almighty God, if we will live longer. Of course, there are some things we can just do to live healthy but that doesn't determine if we will live long or not. We can do exercises regularly to keep fit to be free from some certain diseases and we can start eating vegetables and fruits to be healthy.

A fair eating regimen doesn't need to be an exhausting eating routine. However long you are getting satisfactory proteins, sugars, nutrients, minerals and fats, that cut of chocolate cake you're needing shouldn't do you an excessive amount of mischief. Partake in your suppers, bite your food appropriately and eat an assortment of food sources, including five bits of natural product or vegetables daily. A lot of handled food or sweet food can cause you to feel slow.

Drink more water

Water is a particularly fundamental prerequisite thus key to endurance, yet a lot of us don't drink enough! Six to eight cups a day is the suggested least. We can live for a little while without food however a couple of days without water. In the event that you don't care for the taste, blend it in with juice, sans sugar cheerful or make hot organic product tea. Vegetables and natural product contain a lot of water as well. On the off chance that your pee is more obscure in shading than straw, drink more water!

Take opportunity to unwind

Unwinding is vital to a solid psyche. Anyway you decide to unwind - profound breathing, yoga, fishing, having a shower, perusing a book - attempt to relax for an hour daily if possible. Mental fatigue can cause pressure, despondency and nervousness issues. Current ways of life can be furious - in case you're not working, you're pursuing the children or dashing around the supermarket or accomplishing something different. Unwind! Inhale profoundly. Indeed, even fifteen minutes of this is superior to none, yet go after an hour daily.

Get moving!

There is no reason not to practice in light of the fact that there in a real sense is something for everybody. Not every person loves beating the treadmill or siphoning iron in the rec center however whatever gets your pulse up is a decent cardiovascular movement. What about playing tennis, meeting a companion for a swimming meeting or taking up self-preservation or a military craftsmanship? On the off chance that you can't consider anything better, run all over the steps a couple of times. Feeling better at this point? Exercise discharges endorphins, which cheer you up.

All of these 5 tips might help you live a long and healthy life, but I would like to have my say on #3. A lot of us are eating too much food. We need to eat to live and not live to eat. We are not eating what our body actually wants, we are eating what our taste buds desire. A lot of us are eating according to the watch, and not according to out body clock.

My take on a long and healthy life is happiness. No matter how rich you are but if you are not happy with your life then I don't think you can have a long and healthy life. You may not get sick physically but your mental health might be having issues. I know of many old people who are still joyful and funny in their old age. I would like to be one.
