Every man over the age of 50 should do some planning for the years ahead, not only with money but also with health.
I will show you some things that help you feel younger, stay healthy and add years to your life.
With your habits you can reduce the risk of serious diseases, so you can have more physical, mental and sexual energy.
In fact, you don't have to work out like crazy or eat an extraordinary diet to achieve these goals.
If you want to reduce your risk of a heart attack, stroke or increase your endurance and strength, I want to show you simple steps and strategies that can help you make a lasting change in your life.
Avoid red meat, processed meat, sweets, pastries, industrial drinks, etc. thus you reduce your chances of colon cancer by 30 to 50%.
If you start physical exercises over 30 minutes every day, you can reduce the risk of sclerosis, dementia, alzheimer up to 50%.
You will also reduce your risk of heart disease, blood pressure, and blood sugar without medication.
7 life habits to change:
1) Stop smoking.
2) Eat better.
3) Live an active life.
4) Lose weight.
5) Manage blood pressure.
6) Control your cholesterol
7) Lower blood sugar.
Start with a small change.
Make a small change in your diet. Some suggestions:
Replace the meat with beans, lentils, peas, beans, etc.
Eat a slice of whole grain bread instead of white bread.
Try a vegetable you've never had before. I advise you cabbages of all kinds cooked in different ways.
Do an exercise that gets your heart rate up for over 30 minutes.
Learn your "numbers".
Use your weight and height to calculate your body mass index.
Measure your blood pressure (they have it at the pharmacy, but you can buy a device for home).
Check your medical tests which should include cholesterol and fasting blood sugar.
Some standards:
- Body mass index between 18.5 and 25 (see this BMI calculator)
- Blood pressure below 120/80 mm/Hg
- Total cholesterol of less than 200 mg/dL
- Fasting blood sugar (glucose) below 110 mg / dl.
Take care of yourself!
