What is a healthy lifestyle, exactly?

    "Healthy living" to most people means both physical and mental health are in balance or functioning well together in a person. In many instances, physical and mental health are closely linked, so that a change (good or bad) in one directly affects the other. So we will speak about both physical and mental healthy lifestyle. 

    To be healthy, you often need to choose a right food and be physically active. 

    Everyone eats food to have energy to continue living, but we all have different diet and requirements.

    Getting proper nutrition through your diet does not have to be complicated. We already talked about healthy eating in this blog (linking on how to eat right on the blog: if you can it would be great).

    But here are some tips to help you stay healthier.

    Choose foods that are low in saturated fats, cholesterol, salt (sodium), and added sugars; look at the labels because the first listed items on the labels comprise the highest concentrations of ingredients.

    Control portion sizes; eat the smallest portion that can satisfy hunger and then stop eating.

    Healthy snacks are okay in moderation and should consist of items like fruit, whole grains, or nuts to satisfy hunger and not cause excessive weight gain.

    Avoid sodas and sugar-enhanced drinks because of the excessive calories in the sodas and sugar drinks. Diet drinks may not be a good choice as they make some people hungrier and increase food consumption.

    If a person is angry or depressed, eating will not solve these situations and may make the underlying problems worse.

    Avoid heavy meals in the summer months, especially during hot days.

    Healthy living involves more than physical health, it also includes emotional or mental health. The following are some ways people can support their mental health and well-being.

    It’s very important to get enough sleep during the day. Moreover, 10-17 year olds need 8.5-9.5 hours, and 18 and older people need 7-9 hours of sleep. 

    Do some mind exercises (read, do a puzzle occasionally during the week).

    Try to focus on a process intensely and complete a segment of it over 1 to several hours, then take a break and do something relaxing (walk, exercise).

    Physical activity and exercise is a major contributor to a healthy lifestyle; people are made to use their bodies, and disuse leads to unhealthy living. Unhealthy living may manifest itself in obesity, weakness, lack of endurance, and overall poor health that may foster disease development.
