Health Tips That Every Woman Should Know
The media
abounds in tricks and tips that aim to help you build your lifestyle as
close as possible to what it means to be healthy.
Asking for the opinion of dozens of specialists, Glamor highlighted
some of the most important for a woman.
1. How to get more information from your doctor
Think carefully about what you want from that visit (a diagnosis, a
recommendation to a specialist, etc.) and do not feel embarrassed to ask
anything that puzzles you. Tell your doctor about any supplement you are
taking (some may interact with certain medicines).
2. Why sex is good
Orgasm releases hormones which give a feeling of well-being and strengthen
the immune system. Sex is one of the few things in life that is fun, free, and healthy.
3. Reduce your risk of cancer
Find out about your family history. If you have parents, grandparents,
aunts or uncles who
were diagnosed with such a disease before the age of 50,
you may be at increased risk.
Ask your doctor to set a daily dose of vitamin D (this prevents cancer
and heart disease). Examine your breasts frequently and pay attention
to any changes in your body.
4. Lose weight (if you need to)
If you are overweight, if you lose even 5-10% of your body weight you reduce
your risk of getting certain diseases. Focus
on healthy foods (fruits, vegetables), foods that saturate
for longer (protein), exercise, and avoid alcohol in large quantities.
5. Be concerned with information about
a healthy life
If you want to change your way of life in certain respects, which you know are
not exactly the ones indicated, go to the facts, overcoming more quickly the
stage in which you only propose. Also, find out as often as possible about
habits that help you be healthier.
6. Adopt a positive attitude
If one day you feel fatter, but another day you like how you look, think that
it may be the perception and the state of the moment, not the reality (this if
you still don't have too many extra pounds).
In general, a positive and optimistic attitude helps you fight diseases and
difficulties more easily and live longer.
7. Be careful how much salt you consume
Eat less salt; Half of the women over the age of 45 have high blood pressure,
mostly caused by too much salt consumed.
8. Take care of oral health
In addition to brushing, which should be done at least twice a day, also use
dental floss or an electric toothbrush to thoroughly clean the spaces between
the teeth and prevent gum
disease. Rinse your mouth after any sour drink to remove acids that attack
the enamel.
9. Follow some healthy eating habits
Eat a vegetable or a fruit at every meal, choose products as diverse as
possible (but, as much as possible, not processed), opt for healthy oils such
like olive, canola, although they are harder to find and more expensive) and look
for natural foods that will improve your health.
10. Protect and strengthen your immune system
Wash your hands many times a day and do not take you to work if you are
sick. You will only aggravate the disease and prolong the convalescence
time.
11. Do something that can bring you more happiness
Get a pet; it lowers blood
pressure alleviates anxiety and adds to your mood, mainly because it causes
you to be more active.
Seek to interact with people more often face to face, even if other means, such
as messenger or email, are more tempting.
Don't stay in a relationship where you don't feel good and suffer
often; negative emotions are not good for health.
12. Quit smoking
If you need an extra reason to quit smoking, think that it lowers
fertility. Regardless of the reason chosen, do everything you can to give
up this vice.
13. Sleep well
Eliminate everything you see that distracts you from sleep and sex. Both are good
for health. Sleep for eight hours, with no light sources on (a lamp, TV),
and set your watch to ring just when you need to wake up, without postponing
it.
14. Think twice before taking a medicine
Before taking a pill to get rid of a certain symptom, think about whether you
can do something to eliminate the cause of that symptom. For example, if
your head or stomach hurts, you may be very tired and stressed. Try to
work less or take a break.
15. Keep your brain active
Read something as often as possible and work on various exercises that train
thinking, such as puzzles, puzzles.
16. Take into account three tips for sexual health
Do not diagnose yourself, using the Internet. Go better to the
gynecologist; otherwise, you may have chlamydia and treat vaginal
candidiasis.
Try to have emergency contraceptive pills on hand. Use condoms, if you do
not have a single partner.
17. Follow three tricks if you want to lose weight
Eat as many colored fruits and vegetables as possible, do not give up a diet even
if you have done an excess once or several times and always try to tell
yourself that it is not the last time you eat something you like it (you can
also find another day a tasty pizza, a blackberry or a portion of spaghetti).
18. Be careful what shoes you wear
Avoid high heels that cause your body weight to fall more on your knees, which
forces your joints, and choose heels and lower soles or sports shoes as often
as possible.
19. Help someone
A source of happiness is the satisfaction you get when you help someone who
needs support.
20. Don't forget about exercise.
