Top 10 Tips For A Healthy Lifestyle

Usually we start to think about our health when we are already sick. Healthy life should be a lifestyle, here are my top 10 tips for healthy lifestyle.

1.Do A Job You Love

Some healthy living choices don’t involve preventing possible harm as much as improving the quality of your life. How do you feel when you are at work? Are you happy? Do you have a sense of accomplishment or fulfillment? Or do you dread the moment your foot crosses the threshold and the hours of your life that belong to others?

Most Americans spend the largest portion of their waking hours working at their jobs, preparing for work, or driving to and from work. All these hours are spent just to pay for the place where they rest their heads for the 8 hours and start again. Many go from a hectic work life to a hectic home-life with literally no time for themselves. When put in this perspective, is it not important to ensure that the largest part of your waking day, your working hours, involve doing something that you love?

2. Drink more water.

Most of us don’t drink enough water every day. Water is essential for our bodies to function. Do you know over 60% of our body is made up of water? Water is needed to carry out body functions, remove waste, and carry nutrients and oxygen around our body. Since we lose water daily through urine, bowel movements, perspiration, and breathing, we need to replenish our water intake.

Furthermore, drinking water helps in losing weight. A Health.com study carried out among overweight or obese people showed that water drinkers lose 4.5 more pounds than a control group! The researchers believe that it’s because drinking more water helps fill your stomach, making you less hungry and less likely to overeat.

3. Get enough sleep

Sleep has the ability to optimise mental and physical energy, and optimal levels of sleep (about eight hours a night) are linked with reduced risk of chronic disease and improved longevity. One simple strategy that can help ensure you get optimal amounts of sleep is to go to bed earlier. Getting into bed by 10pm or 10.30pm is a potentially useful investment in terms of your short- and long-term health and wellbeing. Shutting down the computer or turning off the TV early in the evening is often all it takes to create the time and space for earlier sleep.

4.Take a Tailgate Time-out

It’s an all-American past-time — the tailgate party! Tailgating today has progressed far beyond burgers and chips. You’ll find everything from cheese dip to spicy chicken wings.

Don’t despair: Your tailgate spread doesn’t have to sideline your weight loss plan. Grilled kabobs are great fare on the field. Just skewer veggies, fruits, and lean meat, and soak in your favorite marinade. Seafood, salsas, wraps, and stews are good eating, too. A Crock-Pot of chili — loaded with high-fiber, high-protein beans — is a classic tailgate dish (don’t forget the Beano).

Just remember, alcohol is packed with calories. Enjoy your favorite brew, but switch it out for zero-calorie beverages as the party rolls along. It’s all in how you play the game!

5.Stay Home When You’re Sick

This tip will not only benefit you, it will benefit others around you as well. Infectious diseases are just that-infectious. When you go to work or school sick, you not only risk worsening your own condition, but also spreading it to others. Influenza and pneumonia are among the ten leading causes of death in America. Every year, the flu virus spreads like wildfire through schools and offices. This has the sad result of multiplying lost workdays or schooldays exponentially, rather than simply allowing the time for one valuable employee or student to recover properly.

6.Exercise.

Movement is life. Research has shown that exercising daily brings tremendous benefits to our health, including an increase in lifespan, lowering of risk of diseases, higher bone density, and weight loss. Increase activity in your life. Choose walking over transport for close distances. Climb the stairs instead of taking the lift. Join an aerobics class. Take up a sport of your liking (see tip #5).Pick exercises you enjoy. When you enjoy a sport, you naturally want to do it. Exercise isn’t about suffering and pushing yourself; it’s about being healthy and having fun at the same time. Adding variation in your exercises will keep them interesting.

7. Eat mindfully

In our fast-paced world, there can be a tendency to eat while distracted and shovel in more food than we need and, at the same time, miss out on culinary pleasure. Many of us will benefit from eating mindfully. Some things to think about here are avoiding eating when distracted, eating more slowly, and taking time to taste food properly. One particular thing to focus on is chewing your food thoroughly – not only does this help us savour food, it also assists the digestive process.

8.Reduce Stress

A little stress is good. It gives your life excitement. Too much of the wrong stress however can be downright deadly.

Here’s how excess stress can harm your health:

decrease in immune system function – Stress lowers the production of natural killer cells and seriously depletes T-cells, both of which kill infections and cancer
damage to blood vessels and heart – Stress constricts blood vessels and causes faster heartbeat, thus increasing blood pressure
weight gain – Stress causes the release of cortisol which triggers overeating and storage of fat

9. Pick different-colored fruits/vegs.

Fruits/Vegetables with bright colors are usually high in anti-oxidants. Anti-oxidants are good for health because they remove free radicals that damage our cells. Eat fruits/vegetables of different colors: White (Bananas), Yellow (Pineapples, Mango), Orange (Orange, Papaya), Red (Apple, Strawberries, Tomatoes, Watermelon), Green (Avocado, Lettuce, Cucumber), Purple/Blue (Blackberries, Prunes).

10. Practice the art of appreciation

Modern-day living tends to be inspirational and we can easily find ourselves chasing an ever-growing list of goals, many of which can be material. Some of us could do with spending more time focusing not on what we don’t have, but on what we do. Our mood can be lifted by giving thanks for anything from our friends and family to a beautiful landscape or sunset.

Top 10 Health Habits

Everybody wants to be healthy but sometimes is hard to start. To much and confusing information. Here are my top 10 healthy habits.

Don’t retire.

Evidence shows that in societies where people stop working abruptly, the incidence of obesity and chronic disease skyrockets after retirement,” says Luigi Ferrucci, director of the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging. The Chianti region of Italy, which has a high percentage of centenarians, has a different take on leisure time. “After people retire from their jobs, they spend most of the day working on their little farm, cultivating grapes or vegetables,” he says. “They’re never really inactive.”

2.Get more sleep

To get the ball rolling, let’s begin with your sleep patterns. This is without a doubt the most powerful of all our healthy habits. You can’t function without proper sleep. Don’t believe me? Did you know that no matter which bodily need you are trying to serve (be it hunger or thirst or desire or what-have-you), if your body needs sleep badly enough it will literally override all the others and you will collapse on the ground where you stood and immediately fall asleep? Did you know that? Even if you were actively being attacked! I personally know at least one Navy SEAL who slept while being shot at! Now, to be fair to him, he actively made the choice to go to sleep—but still! It shows you that the body needs what the body needs.

3.Eat Breakfast Every Day

Why? Well, you might have heard your mom or dad say this while growing up. But, many of us may have taken this all-important health habit for granted. In our busy and chaotic existences, breakfast sometimes takes a backseat in the car of our lives. We opt for things like sugary coffee drinks or a big lunch, all of which are detrimental to health.

4. Wake Early

We all know the saying—“early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise”—well, it turns out that phrase may have more clout than we initially thought. A study from the University of Toronto found that early risers are both happier and healthier than those who stay up late and wake up late. Previous studies have also found early risers to have more stable personalities and typically more cheerful moods.

5. Move around.

“Exercise is the only real fountain of youth that exists,” says Jay Olshansky, a professor of medicine and aging researcher at the University of Illinois at Chicago. “It’s like the oil and lube job for your car. You don’t have to do it, but your car will definitely run better.” Study after study has documented the benefits of exercise to improve your mood, mental acuity, balance, muscle mass, and bones. “And the benefits kick in immediately after your first workout,” Olshansky adds. Don’t worry if you’re not a gym rat. Those who see the biggest payoffs are the ones who go from doing nothing to simply walking around the neighborhood or local mall for about 30 minutes a day. Building muscle with resistance training is also ideal, but yoga classes can give you similar strength-training effects if you’re not into weight lifting.

6. Diet

Still in the arena of your health, we have your diet coming in at number 6 on our list of healthy habits. There are some super simple rules here. Drink more water. It doesn’t matter how much water you drink now. Drink more. It’s good for you. If you drink a cold glass first thing in the morning you will lose weight (see: giant write-up in the 4-hour body by Tim Ferris) and you will also wake up with a clear, alert mind.

Second, cut out sugar. If you can completely avoid adding sugar to your drinks or food, you will have done wonderful things for your body, metabolically speaking. We have full articles on the site about this so I won’t delve too deeply here.

7.Use Sunblock

Why? Harmful exposure to the sun not only causes us to age too quickly, but it can also result in long-term health-related issues such as skin cancer. When you use sunblock or sun protection, you’re blocking the sun’s harmful rays. SPF, which stands for Sun Protection Factor, is the indicator that tells us just how much of the sun’s rays are being blocked out. An SPF of 15 or higher should always be used no matter if you’re a man, woman, or child.

8.Reading

Yes, my friends. This one IS obvious. But seeing as how this is a list of healthy habits, I HAD TO add it to the list. So here’s what I can do for you. Let me add some tips in this area you HAVEN’T seen!

For those of you who just don’t have the time to read, I think I can offer you several ways to get this done. You can listen to an audiobook while you commute to work. I’ll bet you knew that one. Did you know, however, that you can double the speed at which the book is read back to you? It really makes a big impact on your consumption levels. Not only that, you’ll adjust to it so quickly that everything else will seem like a turtle’s pace.

9. Be less neurotic.

It may work for Woody Allen, who infuses his worries with a healthy dose of humor, but the rest of us neurotics may want to find a new way to deal with stress. “We have a new study coming out that shows that centenarians tend not to internalize things or dwell on their troubles,” says Perls. “They are great at rolling with the punches.” If this inborn trait is hard to overcome, find better ways to manage when you’re stressed: Yoga, exercise, meditation, tai chi, or just deep breathing for a few moments are all good. Ruminating, eating chips in front of the TV, binge drinking? Bad, very bad.

10.Eat Fiber Daily

One of the most important dietary supplements that we can consume are fibers. Fibers are an excellent way of slowing down your body’s breakdown of carbohydrates and its absorption of sugar. This can assist with helping to regulate sugar levels. It has also been found that there is an indirect relationship between amount of fiber consumed and risk of heart attack. Studies have found that people who eat a diet rich in fiber are 40% less likely to get heart disease. Researchers have also come to the conclusion that for each additional 7 grams of fiber consumed that there is a 7 times less likelihood of stroke.

Top 5 Organic Fat Loss Supplements

Most important in fat loss is diet, but some supplements can help speed up that process. Here are my top 5 fat loss supplements.

1.Whey protein

It’s no secret that protein is a gym junkie’s best friend. But it actually does more than just carve cut muscles—a 2014 meta-analysis in the Journal of the American College of Nutrition found that people lost roughly 10 pounds after incorporating whey protein into their diet. And the milk derivative actually outperforms other protein sources: Overweight individuals who drank one whey protein shake a day lost more weight than those who drank a soy protein shake, according to a study in the Journal of Nutrition.

2.Caffeine

Caffeine is the most popular fat loss stimulant on the market and, while it may not be the most popular fat loss supplement overall, it’s popularity is still very high (credit coffee for that) and it is found in most fat burning supplements with multiple ingredients.

The reason for this is all traced back to it’s main action, the ability to block adenosine receptors.

Adenosine receptors normally cause sedation so, when they are blocked, wakefulness occurs.

Now, there are a few adenosine receptors and some do different things than others. While wakefulness will always happen with caffeine for a short time, until you become tolerant to caffeine, adrenaline can also be released.

3.Green Tea

Green Tea seems to be all the rage these days. As well as being packed full of antioxidants, it’s also a potent metabolism booster.

Green Tea contains Epigallocatechin Gallate (usually referred to as EGCG), which is a potent ingredient shown to increase your metabolic rate and get your body burning more fat.
The other good thing about Green Tea is that it’s believed to boost endurance, meaning that you’ll be able to train harder and for longer.

4.Glutamine

The most abundant amino acid naturally produced by your body, glutamine is found in the largest amounts in your muscles, helping repair them, maintain a healthy gutOpens a New Window., and stabilize your blood sugar. A study last year in the European Journal of Clinical NutritionOpens a New Window. found that without changing their diets at all, people lost weight after taking glutamine supplements for four weeks, likely because it helped boost glucose metabolism.

5.Cayenne Pepper

Along with Green Tea, we place Cayenne Pepper as one of the top two best fat burning ingredients around right now.

Just like Green Tea, Cayenne is a potent metabolism booster shown to increase your metabolic rate and get you burning more calories even while resting.

Cayenne contains a substance called Capsaicin, which has been shown to boost energy consumption and therefore help you to burn more calories.

And to double up, Cayenne has also been shown to help suppress appetite at the same time, so it can also help to make it easier to stick to your diet.

Top 5 Anime

This top will be fun, as a hug fan of anime i will present you my top 5 anime. Some of them are retro but gold.

1.Dragon Ball (all series)

Dragon Ball follows the adventures of the protagonist Goku, a strong naïve boy who, upon meeting Bulma, sets out to gather the seven wish-granting Dragon Balls. After becoming a student of martial arts master Kame-Sennin, he and his fellow pupil Kuririn enter a tournament that attracts the most powerful fighters in the world. He then sets out on his own and winds up facing and destroying the Red Ribbon Army single-handedly. When Kuririn is later murdered after another tournament, Goku exacts revenge on his killer Piccolo Daimao. Three years later, Goku, now a young adult, must fight Piccolo Daimao’s offspring Piccolo. The remaining 325 chapters of the manga were adapted into the Dragon Ball Z anime.

2.Bleach

The story revolves around a high school student called Kurosaki Ichigo, who can see ghosts. He receives this special power after an accident in a hollow of a tree. During the incident, when he and his family gets attacked by the Hollow, a Soul Reaper named Rukia Kuchiki rushes to save Ichigo and his family and gets injured while protecting them.

Ichigo promises to take Rukia’s powers in order to save his family, and as a result, the young boy begins training to be a Soul Reaper (Shinigami). The plot is quite similar to that of Sixth Sense, so if you enjoyed that movie, you will most probably like Bleach as well.

3.One Piece

It is really difficult to sum up the story of a series with hundreds and hundreds of episodes, but we can guarantee you that the main character, Luffy, will provide you a meaningful life lesson. He will teach you that if you decide to accomplish something, you should give your all and fight to achieve your goal till the last moment of your life. This message alone makes this anime great.

4.One-Punch Man

The series quickly went viral, surpassing 7.9 million hits in June 2012. The Japanese shortened name Wanpanman is a play on the long-running children’s character Anpanman, wanpan being a contraction of wanpanchi(“one punch”).^[ One-Punch Man tells the story of Saitama, an extremely overpowered superhero who has grown bored by the absence of challenge in his fight against evil and seeks to find a worthy opponent.

A digital manga remake of the series, illustrated by Yusuke Murata, began publication on Shueisha’s Young Jump Web Comics website in 2012. The chapters are periodically collected and printed into tankōbon volumes, with sixteen volumes released as of April 4, 2018. Viz Media has licensed the remake for English serialization in its Weekly Shonen Jump digital magazine.

5.Pokemon

Yeah i know it a little to childish but its classic.
Pokémon, abbreviated from the Japanese title of Pocket Monsters, is a long running Japanese children’s anime television series, which has been adapted for the international television markets. It is based on the Pokémon video game series and is a part of the franchise. The Pokémon anime is split up into five chronologically sequential series in Japan, split up by the version of the video game series the anime takes inspiration from: the original series, the Advanced Generation series, the Diamond & Pearl series, the Best Wishes! series, and currently the XY series which began in October 2013.

You may not like the list but its my list. That is my taste, dont like anime with too much blood, they should be fun and relaxing.

Top 5 Comedy tv series

As a BIG fan of comedy, specially tv series. I want to share my favorite top 10 tv series, some of them are already retro, but as we know retro and vintage clouting, movies, watches, cars and others are the best. So let’s begin.

1.Friends (1994–2004)
IMDb ating: 8.9 (for me 10.0)

Filming of the show took place at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank, California. All ten seasons of Friends ranked within the top ten of the final television season ratings; it ultimately reached the number-one spot in its eighth season. The series finale aired on May 6, 2004, and was watched by around 52.5 million American viewers, making it the fifth most-watched series finale in television history, and the most-watched television episode of the 2000s decade.^[

Friends received acclaim throughout its run, becoming one of the most popular television shows of all time. The series was nominated for 62 Primetime Emmy Awards, winning the Outstanding Comedy Series award in 2002. for its eighth season. The show ranked no. 21 on TV Guide’s 50 Greatest TV Shows of All Time

2. The Big Bang Theory (2007– )

IMDb rating: 8.2

This image released by CBS shows Kunal Nayyar, from left, Simon Helberg, Melissa Rauch, Jim Parsons, Mayim Bialik, Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco appear in a scene from the long-running comedy series “The Big Bang Theory.” The popular series will end in 2019. (Erik Voake/CBS via AP) ORG XMIT: NYET307

The Big Bang Theory didn’t make the best first impression. Back in September 2007, the CBS sitcom’s pilot episode introduced a pair of California science professors — Leonard Hofstadter (Johnny Galecki) and Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons) — who spent much of the next 20 minutes either stammering awkwardly in front of their pretty new neighbor Penny (Kaley Cuoco), or getting humiliated by her hunky ex-boyfriend. Right from the start, the geek community had their worst fears about this show confirmed: based on how it began, The Big Bang Theory promised to be a cliché-ridden weekly mockery of all things nerdy.

If people just don’t find The Big Bang Theory amusing, so be it. Life is short, and no one has to like everything. But by spring 2019, a major network will have spent 12 years airing a massively popular show about brilliant scientists who look forward to Comic-Con, think action figures are cool, and have healthy, fulfilling relationships with each other and with the opposite sex. At a time when superhero movies top the box office and technology wonks like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg are household names, The Big Bang Theory has helped promote the idea that nerds are the new normal.

3.Two and a Half Men 2003
IMDb rating: 7.1

Image #: 5121842 ‘Waiting for the Next Snapper’ — Charlie (Charlie Sheen) tries to resist temptation when he meets the grown daughter of the woman he’s dating and realizes they’ve met before, on the fifth season finale of “Two and a Half Men. Jake (Angus T. Jones), Evelyn (Holland Taylor),and Alan Harper (Jon Cryer). CBS/Mitchell Haddad /Landov

Charlie is a wealthy bachelor with a house at the beach, a Jaguar in the front, and an easy way with women. His casual Malibu lifestyle is interrupted when his tightly wound brother Alan, who’s facing a divorce, and his son Jake, come to live with him. Together, these two and a half men confront the challenges of growing up; finally. Complicating matters are the brothers’ self-obsessed, controlling mother, Evelyn, Alan’s estranged wife, Judith and Charlie’s crazy neighbor Rose, who wants to be a part of his life and is willing to do anything to be around.

4. The Simpsons (1989– )
IMDb rating: 8.7

THE SIMPSONS: The Simpsons are evicted from Springfield in “At Long Last Leave,” the milestone 500th episode of THE SIMPSONS, airing Sunday, Feb. 19 (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT) on FOX. THE SIMPSONS ™ and © 2012 TCFFC ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

What’s amazing about the show, an existential riot on the terrors of home, work and school, isn’t that the sardonic wit that left us wanting more on Ullman can sustain laughs for a full half-hour.

The surprise is how oddly touching The Simpsons can be, especially in the relationship between put-upon father Homer and bad boy Bart. … The Simpsons is crammed with sly visual and verbal gags. It’s adult entertainment that’s just as hip for kids. Being a cartoon just makes it that much more exciting and unpredictable.

5.That ’70s Show (1998–2006)
IMDb rating: 8.1

Hanging with Eric is Donna (Laura Prepon), his teasing knockout of a neighbor, and his hunky pal Kelso (Ashton Kutcher), Kelso’s princess girlfriend Jackie (Mila Kunis), the paranoid Hyde (Danny Masterson) and Fez (Wilmer Valderrama), a foreign-exchange student whose comic task is to garble the language in a pre-political correctness sorta way.

Opening seg appears to be mostly about odd bonding and the breezy, segment-bridging production devices that have become the Turners’ signature — making posters talk and smile buttons bounce and chatter. The single truly clever moment happens when Eric, high on reefer, is forced to hold a conversation with his parents. From his perspective, we see the wall behind them sway hallucinogenically.

That is my list of top 5 favorite comedy shows, the are much more funny tv series. if you love retro or vintage product visit or page Vintage-Flame.
