TIPS

Hi Friends .today i am going to share with you very important Healt Tips.

Wellness means much more than the absence of sickness. It is a way of living that emphasizes
such preventive measures as eating a healthy diet; making exercise an enjoyable part of your life,
and making self care decisions that will actively improve the quality of your life. Wellness
means reducing your risk for chronic disease, preventing and treating injuries, banishing
environmental and safety hazards from your home and workplace, and eliminating unnecessary
trips to the doctor—but making the best use of the health care system when you need it.
The premise of wellness is that you can live a long, healthy, and active life. All you need is the
desire to do so—and the right information on which to base your actions.

(1) Be a semi­vegetarian.


That’s someone who supplements a steady diet of vegetables, whole
grains, legumes, fruit, and dairy products with occasional moderate servings of beef, poultry, and
fish. The potential benefits are many: a lowered risk for heart disease, cancer, and diabetes, the
maintenance of a healthy weight, and fewer digestive complaints.

(2) Select foods rich in carotenoids,


notably beta­carotene. Research shows that these substances
may play a role in preventing disease. Their orange color tells you that carrots, sweet potatoes, and cantaloupe are excellent sources of beta­carotene. But so are many dark leafy greens, such as
collard greens, kale, and spinach, as well as broccoli.

(3) Eat foods rich in vitamin C every day.

An adequate intake of such foods may help protect
against cancer and possibly other diseases. Besides oranges, the best sources of vitamin C are, in
alphabetical order, asparagus, blackberries, broccoli, cabbage, cantaloupe, cauliflower,
grapefruit, kale, kiwifruit, mangoes, mustard greens, peppers, raspberries, strawberries,
tangerines, and tomatoes.

(4) Eat tomatoes and tomato products.


One four­ounce tomato supplies about one­third of your
daily need of vitamin C, plus a little beta­carotene, potassium, folate and other B vitamins, iron, and fiber. Tomatoes are also rich in a carotenoid called lycopene, a potent antioxidant. The
lycopene in cooked and processed tomatoes (sauce, paste, salsa, canned tomatoes) is more easily
absorbed than that in raw tomatoes. Watermelon and pink grapefruit also contain lycopene

(5)Choose skinless turkey breast—it’s just about the leanest of all meats.


A three­ounce portion
has less than a gram of fat and 120 calories. Plain roast turkey is your best bet: turkey cold cuts
and self­basting turkeys can be quite high in fat.
