All of us know that a healthy, well maintained body will go a long way to keep you looking younger and fresher and contribute towards your genuine happiness and fulfillment. So take good care of yourself! After all, we have but one life to lead!

• As a first step, reduce your fat intake. Try and keep it under 30%. Do not make the mistake of cutting it out altogether - after all, good fat is an essential nutrient.
• Are you taking enough nutritious fibre foods? Consumption of whole grains, whole wheat, brown rice and plenty of fresh fruits and veggies will help you in your health mission.
• Are you drinking plenty of clean water? Water is a very important and essential nutrient. Drink the mandatory 8 glasses for good digestion and to get rid of toxins.
• If you are not used to strenuous exercise, forget about all those exercise machines in the gym. But how about a brisk, daily walk? It will keep you fit and, with a little weight bearing exercise, your bones will become strong. So, sensible exercise is a must.
• Is your consumption of micronutrients sufficient? These are vitamins and minerals (essential components of nutrition) that are required in smaller quantities but which go a long way in making you feel good, slow down natural ageing process and also prevent diseases.
• Have you cut down drastically on your consumpton of refined sugar? Sugar is what causes ups and downs and is actually a nutritional nightmare. Might give you a burst of energy one minute, and the next, take you to the dumps. Result? Irritation and depression.
• Learn to limit your salt intake. Are you aware that excess salt will throw you off balance and play havoc with your minerals? It's a sure cause of water retention and high blood pressure.
• Are you a smoker, drinker and caffeine addict? Well, the less said of the negative effects of these, the better. We don't want to scare you, but it is essential for reasons of good health, that you eliminate these from your life forever. Quit while the going is still good.
• See that you maintain an optimum weight. Do not indulge in yo-yo dieting and weight loss. It will only strain your body and result in your getting stressed out.
• You have to make up your mind to be happy. There is nothing the power of the mind cannot achieve. Lead a balanced life and always think positive. You will emerge a sure winner!
