Hello

Living a long and a healthy life is the dream of every one. If you stop and ask any one on the street, they will tell you that they want to live longer.

Of course, the classic rules apply which are to spend at least 30 minutes of exercise for three times a week and to lose weight by adopting a diet that focuses on fruits and vegetables.

Hi

1. Creative Visualisation - Think Positively


See your future...
Ten minutes of creative visualisation a day can open your mind to new possibilities, ones you never thought you would consider for yourself and your future.
Ten minutes of focusing on the positive and visualising the future each day can change the way you look at life.

2. Breath deep

It's so easy.
Ten deep breaths can improve your oxygen levels, increase circulation, lower anxiety levels and help you manage stressful situations.
Stop. Take Ten. Enjoy life.

3. A little walk goes a long way - count to 10...let's go!

A brisk 10 minute walk, three times a
day reduces the risk of diabetes and
osteoporosis, can lower your cholesterol level and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.


Count to 10...let's go!

4. Go on - put your feet up!


You deserve to put your feet up.
Putting your feet up for 10 minutes gives tired and aching feet a well deserved rest and also improves circulation.
Your feet will thank you!

5. Stretch yourself every day!


Spread your wings! (Or at least stretch a little.)

Ten minutes of stretching
twice a day can lower stress levels, help lower blood pressure and improve digestive and blood circulation.

Proper stretching before exercise reduces the risk
of injury and makes hard working muscles feel great.

6. Eat your Fruits & Veg


Produce the Produce!
Everyone knows that 5-10 fruits and vegetables a day are part of a healthy diet but sometimes it’s hard to work them all in. So mix it up a little! Break out the blender and have a fruit smoothie for breakfast. Or try something new!
Ask your grocer for a recommendation. Most stores will order in new and exotic fruits and vegetables if they know there is a market.


7. Funny is good for you!


Laugh it up!
It’s true – Laughter is good for you. It increases blood flow, relaxes the body and lessens stress levels. Don’t take life so seriously - a good belly laugh also helps digestion, helps lower blood pressure and releases natural pain killing endorphins that make you feel great and help to boost your immune system.
What an easy way to make yourself more healthy!

8. Reduce your stress: The glass is a) half full and rising, b) being filled to the top, c) for me!


Reduce your stress levels. Easier said than done, right? Start by trying to get enough sleep and regular exercise.
Count to ten before reacting to something that aggravates you. Recognize the stressful situations in your life and think about how you can improve how you feel about them.
There is a definite connection between healthy living and having a positive outlook on life.
Try making a list of ten things you are thankful for - just doing this daily can make a big difference in your everyday attitude and help manage stress.

9. Don't forget your brain!


Don’t forget your brain!


Your brain needs exercise too. Giving your mind a workout is an important part of healthy living.

Learn something new. Read about something you are interested in or do a puzzle. Or check your local community centre for book groups, classes and lectures – who knows? You may find a new passion or a hobby that’s right for you.
Get that brain moving!

10. Get moving - your body will thank you!

It's so simple... get off the couch!



Thanks

Hi

Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. Unfortunately it is also the least noticed of all forms of diabetes. This type 2 diabetes is unfortunately growing among children. Reading and being informed on this form of diabetes is important and this short article is created to help you do just that. Please read on and find out more about type 2 diabetes.

Type 2 diabetes is a problem of metabolism. The body begins to fail to produce enough insulin to use the energy given by food. The glucose is allowed into the cells by using insulin from the pancreas. Through various reasons the low levels of insulin become insufficient to allow the energy from the glucose to enter the cells, and stays in the bloodstream. Then, the body will try to eliminate the abundance of glucose through the kidneys and bladder. Type 2 diabetes will generate symptoms of extreme thirst and then the corresponding urination as the glucose is continually excreted.

The exact cause of type 2 diabetes is said to be unknown. What is known is that it is preventable. For those at high risk, even they can prevent the onslaught of type 2 diabetes. To prevent it, the American Diabetes Association recommends that a person get thirty minutes of daily exercise. The exercise will lower the levels of blood sugar. Also, eating a healthy diet is another thing the American Diabetes Association says will help to prevent type 2 diabetes. Lowering the intake of sweets and animal products are helpful also. One obvious thing a person can do is get regular screenings for type 2 diabetes and this will make it plain if this deceitful disease is creeping up on a person or not.

Thanks
