How to improve your health? (Laura Barrientos)

1.       Drink a glass of water before and after meal

The water is calorie free and helps to get proper digestion because it helps to remove toxins from the body

2.       Eat many times, not a lot

Eat small meals throughout the day. It makes you feel less hungry during the day and helps you not eat a lot

3.       Sleep well

Try to sleep seven to eight hours a day because your body needs it to recover energy

4.       Create an exercise routine

Walk to work. Use a bike. Take dance lesson or exercise for just 30 minutes each day. You can feel better every day

5.       Be hygienic

Wash your hands before eating, after going to the bathroom, or when you have contact with sick people to eliminate potential bacteria and don’t forget to brush your teeth 3 times a day and wash your hair twice a week

6.       Don’t skip breakfast

It’s important to eat in the morning. It gives you energy to start you day

7.       Protect your skin

Always use sunscreen outdoors, especially in the summer, to protect the skin from UV rays

8.       Go to the doctor

Go to the doctor at least once a year to rule out any disease or when you don’t feel good, please don’t self-medicate

9.       Challenge your brain

Do a crossword puzzle. Read a new book. Learn a new language or play with a Rubik’s cube
