  10 healthy lifestyle habits …
1. Eat more nutritious high fiber foods. Include an abundance of colorful vegetables and other high fiber foods, such as beans, fresh fruit, nuts, and whole grains.
2. Reduce and balance your fat intake. Keep fat calories under 30%. The vast majority of the fats you eat should be good healthy essential fatty acids and omega 3
3. Drink plenty of pure clean water. Water is an essential nutrient that helps you digest food, transport nutrients and get rid of toxins. Replace other drinks with water.
4. Exercise moderately and sensibly. A brisk daily walk in better than strenuous high impact aerobics. Also, light weight training helps keep your bones strong.
5. Cut way down on refined carbohydrates. High glycemic index foods are a nutritional nightmare, giving you a burst of energy one minutes and a bout of fatigue the next. They take your emotions on a roller coaster ride to end up at depression and irritability.
6. Limit your sodium intake. Too much salt throws your minerals off balance, causes excess water retention and possibly high blood pressure.
7. Eliminate negative habits. Give up excess caffeine and other stimulants, reduce your alcohol intake and, if you smoke, quit.
8. Reach and maintain your optimum weight. Both overweight and yo-yo weight loss can put stress and strain on your body. Rather than relying on diet pills and crash fad diets, it’s best to finally get it right once and for all with healthy eating habits, moderate exercise and a good healthy lifestyle.
9. Take high quality whole food supplements. Optimum amounts of vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and essential fatty acids can help you feel etter, prevent disease and slow down aging. So add high quality whole food supplements to your daily menu.
10. Manage the stress in your life. Take whatever steps necessary to reduce stress and create a balanced life that works. Make up your mind to appreciate the good things in your life and be happy.
