Healthy is the new rich – don’t leave it to chance! Here are 7 pro-tips
We sacrifice our health to make money, then we sacrifice our money to get our health back. Isn’t that absurd?
Let me go even further. We take our cars to mandatory check-ups, our cats and dogs to get their vaccinations; we go through our wardrobe and throw out the old clothes to give space to the new ones. Why don’t we dedicate the attention that it deserves to our health?
However, the body we live in serves us 24 hours a day. Our hearts beat 115,200 times a day only to keep us alive. Don’t take it for granted that, if you don’t take care of your body and soul, that body you live in will work for you with the same willingness and humility.
Think of your health as a gift that isn’t at all given to everyone at the beginning of their life. Do not waste it – you should do everything to maintain your health.
Here are some tips on how to maintain your health
1. Health starts in the kitchen and continues in our beds!
Even a 5-year-old kid knows that fruit and vegetable consumption „keeps the doctor away” and provides for a sufficient fibre intake which is essential to a good digestion. An apple a day keeps the doctor away – goes the saying. This is obviously not enough in itself, but it helps you understand that over-processed food is not suitable for you if you want to be healthy!
Ultra processed food: food substances are broken down to their elementary components, modified through chemical procedures and then, with the help of additives, put together into something that looks like food, put in an eye-catching package, something very tasty and immediately consumable.
They are characterized by shallow nutritive values, high calories, a fast and high blood sugar response and a reduced capacity to fill you. You should absolutely avoid them.
2. A suitable quality and quantity of sleep
If you don’t get proper sleep, if you keep going to bed too late, your biorhythm- also known as the circadian rhythm- is subverted. A prolonged lack of sleep weakens the immune system by keeping the body in a constant state of stress. The adrenal glands keep producing cortisol which increases blood sugar levels, the continued subsisting of which can lead to insulin resistance.
3. Regular exercise – not just for looking good
Even WHO has declared that an inactive way of life is among the leading causes of death all over the world. A sedentary lifestyle is a key to the evolution of cardiovascular diseases, malignant tumours and diabetes.
1 of 4 adults all over the world don’t exercise enough and 80% of teenagers lead a sedentary lifestyle – which is more than worrying.
Exercise regularly! This can be an hour per day of walking, swimming, cycling or some strength sport, you name it. Find your ideal way of exercise which you can insert every day.
4. Daily vitamin and trace element intake
It is impossible to give your body all the vitamins and minerals it needs on a daily basis only through food. It is necessary to make up for the lack. To this purpose, we have all the daily sprays that absorb through the mucous membrane and ensure a nearly 98% absorption.

5. Pay attention to a healthy spirit
Instead of the stress-inducing TV news why not read some self-help books that serve as a kind of emotional boost to fight our daily struggles.
6. Do not miss your annual check-ups!
By those I mean firstly gynaecological and breast controls. Missing them has cost their life to so many women. You should not miss them! If you already have symptoms or suspicions that something is not going alright, go find out ASAP what it is about.
7. Creating balance for the whole body
CBD oil could be your perfect partner in this, since it affects your body’s self-controlling endocannabinoid system.
What changes can CBD oil bring?
- Insomnia
- anxiety
- panic disorders
- depression
- fatigue
- immune weakness
- various inflammations
- cardiovascular symptoms
- diabetes
- digestion troubles and a lot more.
Its diversity is connected to our endocannabinoid system (read more about it here).
Finally, let me encourage you not to wait for the symptoms to show up and then try to gain back the thing you once had: your health.
