Let’s read: A Healthy Lifestyle
As time goes by, doctors and scientists are finding a strong relationship
between the mind and the body. It's becoming clear that how you feel
mentally and emotionally is very important for the way you feel physically.
Have you ever thought that once you passed the age of 20 you start to die?
Of course, that is generally a slow process, but you can't escape from it.
Teenagers find it difficult – if not impossible- to imagine themselves as
middle-aged or old people. That’s because they are young, fit and strong;
however, if they don't get into the habit of taking regular exercise early in life
to keep like that as long as possible, they will have lots of problems when they
are older. One of the easiest ways to keep fit is to stick to a healthy diet, that is
to say, to eat fruit, fresh vegetables and food containing fibre, regularly.
Smoking is something you must give up if you want to be healthy. Also, try to
reduce your alcohol consumption and avoid being too fat.
