To look good and maintain health and youth for as long as possible, you need to lead a healthy lifestyle. What is meant by it?

Healthy sleep

During sleep, important processes occur in the body aimed at restoring it. Therefore, it is important to sleep well. Learn to fall asleep and wake up at the same time, so as not to knock down the biorhythms. The bed for a quality sleep should be smooth and moderately hard. The blanket is light, breathable.

On a flat bed, the body weight is evenly distributed, the muscles completely relax, the spine straightens and the gaps between the vertebrae increase, which prevents compression of nerves and blood vessels. This means that the internal organs are saturated with oxygen, which they did not receive during the day. This is important for maintaining the health of organs and the whole body as a whole.

Physical activity

Lead an active lifestyle. Lack of movement leads to the development of many diseases of the heart, blood vessels and the oxygen transport system.

Try to walk at least 10 km a day. Movement prevents stagnation of the blood. And the blood supplies oxygen and nutrients to all cells and tissues.

Attention! The spine fully functions only with a sufficient supply of trace elements during movement.

Do exercises. This will help your body to finally wake up and tune in to a productive active day, make you more attentive and purposeful. When working sedentary, change your body position regularly. Every 20-30 minutes, get up and warm up – stand on one leg, sit on your knees, stretch, jump, stretch your legs. If you are forbidden to get up from your workplace, at least often fidget in your chair or choose exercises that you can perform sitting down.

A calm atmosphere in the house and family

Create a calm, comfortable environment in the house. The house should be a place where you can return after a hard day's work. If you do not want to return home after a hard day's work, you urgently need to change something. If we are talking about family conflicts, contact a psychologist, try to establish relations with a loved one or break them. Remember that many diseases are caused by nerves. Take care of them, because there is nothing more valuable than health.

The right response to stress

You will not be able to avoid stressful situations all your life. However, you can learn to respond to them correctly and painlessly for your health.

Body and environmental hygiene

Take care of your body, because you have to live in it all your life. Observe hygiene, maintain a proper microclimate in the house, wear clean and comfortable clothes made of natural fabrics, go out into nature more often.

No bad habits

Get rid of bad habits. And the faster you do it, the less harm you will cause to your health.

Attention! It is possible to get out of the risk group for heart and vascular diseases only 3 years after the last cigarette smoked.

Balanced and rational nutrition

Stick to a healthy and balanced diet. The body should receive all the nutrients necessary for a full – fledged life-proteins, healthy fats, slow carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and others. And in the right quantities. Give preference to healthy natural products. Don't overeat. At a normal weight, consume exactly as many calories as the body spends per day. If you are overweight, slightly lower the caloric content of the diet and exercise to increase the cost of calories.

Attention! In no case do not go on a strict diet. Firstly, it is useless-with a lack of calories, the body will begin to accumulate fat even more actively. Secondly, it is harmful-the body must receive all the substances it needs.

Watch your posture

Poor posture is the cause of problems not only with the spine, but also with internal organs that contract and lack nutrients and oxygen due to the deterioration of blood supply.

Strengthening the immune system

Strengthen the immune system. There are many ways available. For example, swimming, hardening, taking vitamin and mineral complexes, contrast shower. Well, do not forget that the basis of a strong immune system is a healthy lifestyle.
