more aware of how lifestyle and choices about nutrition and physical exercise
can have a great impact on our quality of life.

it's time to think about your health so you can continue to enjoy life to the

Your way to be
healthy after 50
With the passage of time, our bodies naturally change and
our muscles, bones, and joints may feel a little different. This is totally
normal; however, our life habits can affect the impact that these changes have
on our lives. Maintaining an inadequate diet and lack of physical activity can
make us feel tired and more prone to health problems. That's why balanced
nutrition and the regular practice of physical activity are so important.
Eating a balanced and complete daily diet and regular
exercise can help reduce health problems that arise over the years. Covering
the requirements of nutrients, especially vitamins, minerals, protein, and
fiber, is essential to maintain the normal functioning of our body, from muscle
maintenance to healthy digestion.
Get moving
The benefits of regular exercise go beyond physical
health. A strong and agile body is more resistant and helps you to
be active and do what you like most. You will feel these benefits now and
appreciate them over time
Try to consume less than 20% of processed foods (packaged or
canned products, sugar, white flour, sauces, and creams) or of animal origin
(meats, dairy products). Whole grains contain multiple nutrients before they
become white flours, but when the whole grain is processed some are lost. The
best way to avoid sugar, fats and other unwanted additives are to prepare all
the food from scratch, as much as possible.
Sleep from 7 to 8 hours.
We all know that not sleeping as necessary can make the day
difficult and bring chronic complications, such as high blood pressure,
diabetes, depression, and obesity, as well as cancer, increased mortality and
decrease the quality of life and productivity. The lack of sleep may be due to
many factors, but let's be honest, access to technology 24 hours a day is one
of the most frequent causes. We must schedule the hours of sleep like any other
daily activity and not let anything affect the rest.
Keep away from smoking:
If you cross 50 then it is suggested to keep away from smoking. If
you are habitual of smoking and want to get rid of this habit then use vaping.
As it is an easy way to stop smoking.
