Do not take chances with your Health.

Let me ask you a simple question: How much money do you spend on your car, vacations and nights out with your friends? Then think about how much money you spend on your health plans?

It is frightening that people spend longer planning their vacation every year than they spend considering their options on health care. Unfortunately there are two things that we can’t avoid in life, taxes and death! And the facts are that the older we get the more health care we might need!

But you should also think about preventive health care as this could actually save your life before any conditions become worse. If you smoke you are increasing your chances considerably of getting any number of related diseases. Trying to stop smoking is though but as they say, it’s no pain no gain!

Drinking over the recommended level of Alcohol each week is also another danger sign you need to look out for as alcohol addiction can easily spiral out of control if you are not careful.

Do you do enough exercise? There are some simple steps you can take to improve your fitness. For example walk to the school with the kids rather than taking the car. If you live in an upstairs flat then take the stairs rather than a lift.

Another major factor in your overall health is of course your diet. A healthy diet plan is probably the most important part of a healthy lifestyle. It is true that “You are what you eat ” so make sure you are not binging on junk food seven times a day.

If you are overweight you may want to consider a diet plan but common sense should tell you that simple things such as eating plenty of fruit and vegetables and drinking lots of water instead of fizzy juice will certainly help!
