Life tips: 14 simplest ways to stay healthy

1. Oil and Salt Exfoliation

Experts say that mixing 1 spoon of salt with 1 spoon of oil, dipping a wet towel in the oil-salt mixture and gently wiping your body 1-2 times a week can easily remove dead skin cells, but this method is not suitable for the face.

2. Talk about things while walking

Whether it is a business meeting or meeting with friends, don't make it in a cafe or other indoor place. Why not go to the park together and talk while walking. Walking is good for your health and you can breathe fresh air.

3. Choose an electric toothbrush

Electric toothbrushes can better remove food debris between teeth and effectively remove bacteria attached to teeth. Electric toothbrushes and dental floss work best together.

4. Divide the exercise into 6 sessions

For busy office workers, not having large blocks of time for exercise is indeed annoying. However, experts suggest that a more ideal alternative is to divide the exercise time into 6 times a day, 5 minutes each time, which will have the same good exercise effect.

5. Exercise with dumbbells while watching TV

It is best to exercise while watching TV, and dumbbells are the most suitable way to exercise. While watching TV, you may want to lift 1.5 kg to 2.3 kg dumbbells. If you don't have dumbbells, you can also lift a bottle of water.

6. Homemade fruit drinks

Experts recommend eating 5 servings of fruit and 4 servings of vegetables every day. In addition, you can choose any 2-3 kinds of fruits and vegetables you like and make them into juice to drink every day, which can help the body absorb protein and dietary fiber.

7. Do a self-check in the shower

Do a monthly self-examination in the shower. The main purpose of the examination is to check whether there are any unidentified lumps that can be felt in various parts of the body, and whether there are any organ abnormalities. After bathing, check your back in front of a mirror for any unidentified lumps or spots. Finally, check your scalp to see if it has normal color.

8. Don’t buy too much at each visit to the supermarket

When you go shopping at the supermarket, buy the things you need most first. This can reduce the weight of carrying shopping bags and prevent bone and muscle injuries. If you buy too many things, it is best to push the shopping cart a little further.

9. Eat more fish and sesame seeds

Fish is one of the best sources of omega-3 fatty acids and it is best to eat fish once a week. If you don’t like fish, you can eat more sesame seeds and yogurt.

10. Moisturizing and sun protection are essential

Regardless of the weather, season, or skin type, it is best to moisturize your skin and take sun protection measures when going out, which can delay skin aging and reduce the risk of skin cancer.

11. Add edamame to your vegetable salad

Edamame contains vitamin A and vitamin C and has more iron than a 4-ounce chicken breast. Therefore, when mixing vegetable salad, you might as well add some edamame to make the nutrition more balanced.

12. Wash your hands for more than 10 seconds

When washing hands, you need to rub your hands with soap for 10 to 15 seconds to remove most of the bacteria. Washing hands is also a way to maintain health.

13. Take more deep breaths every day

The easiest way to regulate your emotions is to breathe deeply. Sitting quietly and taking deep breaths for 2-3 minutes every day can relieve stress and tension.

14. Calcium and fiber are a golden pair

Calcium and fiber are best consumed together. 6 ounces of yogurt + 1/4 cup of cereal per day can provide 300 ml of calcium and 7 grams of fiber, which is equivalent to 30% and 25% of your daily calcium and fiber requirements. This is a good breakfast choice.
