Health and Lifestyle Tips:

Get a yearly blood test to ensure that you’re fit and healthy:

If it’s been several years since you’ve had a blood test, it’s a good idea to talk to your doctor about having b12 levels and iron levels tested. As if you’re deficient of either, you may need to take supplements or alter your diet, in order to restore your b12 levels or iron levels. As if either level is low you are more susceptible to a wide variety of illnesses. Some signs that you may be deficient in B12 or iron is if your hair is falling out or you have dizzy spells on a regular basis.

If you struggle to lose weight and workout several times a week and eat cleanly, you may also want to have your body’s thyroid tested as thyroid disease is one of the world’s most common diseases and effects a large number of individuals. If your body has a thyroid problem you may find it difficult to lose weight due to a hormonal imbalance and may need to take prescribed medication, in order to regulate your hormones.

Use a foam roller to stretch out your muscles after challenging workouts:

If you often wake up with stiff muscles, the day after a difficult workout, it’s a great idea to use a foam roller in order to stretch out your legs and lower back. Paticularly if you’ve completed a lengthy cardio session or have been lifting heavy weights. If possible, you should complete a foam roll cool down stretch after each of your workouts. Especially if you want to be able to give your all to your workouts and to push your limits in order to increase your fitness and to get into the best shape of your life.

Use lemon or lime to flavor your water:

If you struggle to drink 8 regular glasses of water each day or dislike the taste of water, one way to increase your water intake is to use freshly squeezed lemon or lime in order to flavor your water.

Choose healthy options when you eat out:

If you enjoy eating out as a way to catch up with friends and family members, it’s possible to choose healthy options that are delicious yet nutritionally balanced. As an example, you may want to catch up with friends for açai bowls which are packed full of super foods such as coconut flakes, Greek yoghurt and blueberries or you may want to opt for a vegetable filled kebab when you’re shopping at your local mall. Once you’re aware of a few healthy options in your city, you won’t have any trouble eating healthy when you’re out and about or catching up with friends.

So if you know the importance of your health and wellbeing and are prepared to take proactive steps towards improving your health, make sure to implement all of the advice listed above.
