Eat right – when it comes to
foods majority of us have that as weakness or challenge because of the hustle-life
of the cities. In most cases, we skip breakfasts and live on snacks, junks etc
to help the body but these ‘foods’ serve as catalyst to expose the body to
series of heart diseases and the likes. Let your diet follow the prescribed
diet plan as given by WHO (foods pyramid) – your daily consumption should
comprise : (i) 5% carbohydrates (ii) 10% protein (iii) 15% fat and oil (iv) 20%fruits
and vegetable (v) 50% whole grains. For adults, caution should be taken in
relation to foods with these substances - Sodium and
salt, Saturated fat,
Sweets and added sugars,
including sugar-sweetened
beverages and red 
Weight balance – do you need
to reduce your weight or to add more? If your weight is a challenge for you,
you need to add this to your goal list and make deliberate efforts to work on
it. Research has shown that over-weight has links with different diseases such
as high blood pressure, heart related issues and the likes. If you take
alcohol, it is time to cut it down, reduce the consumption of refined
sugar/carbohydrate in-take, cut the consumption of processed foods/canned foods
and eat more of fiber related foods. You can lose 100 pounds in weeks by losing
5-10pounds daily.
Take a preventive measure –
prevention is better than cure, ensure you listen to your body as it
communicates to you, do not wait until the symptoms are obvious before the
necessary action is taken.
Make a date for body checkup
– for you to live healthy in this year, make sure you visit a health
worker/agent to carry out your health check. This is one of the secrets to
healthy and long life living of Japanese. Japanese is said to visit a clinic
twice the number of times a Briton will do.
In conclusion, your health
goals are not limited to these goals. However, considering these goals will
help you to achieve other goals. That is to say, if these goals are added to
your goals in this year, you are on your ways to a healthy living which will
guarantee your success in business, career and in all rounds of life. Like the
popular saying, ‘your health is your wealth’.
