Get 30 minutes of exercise every day

Regular physical activity decreases the risk of death
from heart disease, lowers the risk of developing
diabetes, and is associated with a decreased risk of
colon cancer. It also helps prevent high blood pressure
and helps you lose weight and keep it off.
• Think of yourself as an active person.
• Make physical activity a part of your everyday routine.
Go for brisk walks. Ride a bike. Dance. Do chores
around the house and in the yard. Take the stairs
instead of the elevator. Rake leaves.
• Get 30 minutes of activity that makes you breathe
harder, on most or all days of the week. If you can’t be
active for 30 minutes all at once, get at least 10
minutes of endurance activity at a time.

Cut back on caffeine

Coffee tastes great and it’s safe to drink in
moderation. But too much caffeine can make you
irritable. It can also upset your stomach and disturb
your sleep. Medical experts recommend that you
consume no more than 300 milligrams of caffeine
a day. That’s the equivalent of about two cups of
brewed coffee.
Start feeling better today by moderating your
intake of coffee, caffeinated tea, and soft drinks
with caffeine.
