im 21. Just thinking it is very important to look after myself health so as i get older i can prevent any?

Question

problesm, that is true?

Answer 1

Sounds pretty good to me.

Answer 2

Great question - Keeping your body fat low is very important, exercise and eat a lot of vegetables and fruit. Avoid direct sun light because the sun is getting stronger and skin cancer is much more common now than 20 years ago. Ignore what was just said above my comments about avoiding alcohol. Clinical studies clearly demonstrate that the non-drinker and the alcoholic die before the moderate drinker. The Framingham Heart Study first came up with that and it has been confirmed many times over in many countries. You should have 4 or 5 glasses of some (it does not matter what type) beverage with alcohol in it per week. Avoid smoking at all cost - it will kill you. You will live longer.

Since you are21, I would get a complete blood work up and have the results given to you so you will have a base line. The work up should include, glucose, thyroid hormones, kidney function tests, liver function, CBC, cholesterol and a urinalysis.

Use these as your base line and as you get older you can check your health against the base line of 21

Answer 3

Great idea. Try to enjoy life to the very fullest naturally, without artificial "aids" such as drugs or smoking or drinking to excess. Laugh heartily every day. Do have that one or two alcoholic drinks a day, but never more than that. Hang out with friends whose company you sincerely enjoy, not those you have to be drunk to tolerate.

Eat natural foods, with the emphasis on fruits, vegetables, and grains. Meat should be avoided as much as possible, as it clogs your arteries, and the hormones in it can negatively impact your sexual performance when you are older. Take a good multi-vitamin every day.

Develop a hobby or interest that fascinates you and can be continued lifelong, not one that is only of interest to people your own age. Devote some time every week to volunteer work. Get plenty of exercise. Sports like tennis that you can do without involving two large teams are easier to continue doing,

Try to get a job that you love and that makes you feel worthwhile. It is health-destroying to spend 40 hours a week doing something you hate! Continue learning long past the date you get your last degree. An active mind is as important to health as an active body. If you like animals, pets are shown to have a positive impact on well-being.

If there is love and laughter and a circle of friends in your life, you will live both longer and better. Get started on developing healthy habits today!

While there are no guarantees, you can increase your chances of long term good health by not smoking, not abusing alcohol and other drugs, eating a healthy diet, limiting sun exposure, getting plenty of exercise, taking good care of your teeth and avoiding risky behaviors such as unprotected sex, reckless driving, and riding a motorcycle or bicycle without a helmet

Answer 5

Dear friend, just avoid alcoholic drinks and narcotics, have regular exercise, eat natural foods instead of junks and as the most important, try not to get nervous about anything! :)
see you 100 years later!
