Everyday Health

Everyday Health Practices Maintaining good health often involves consistent, small, healthy habits rather than drastic changes.

• Eat a Healthy Diet: Focus on a variety of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Limit intake of saturated fats, sugar, and salt.
• Stay Active: Adults should aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week. This can include exercise, household chores, or walking.
• Prioritize Sleep: Aim for 7 to 9 hours of sleep per night for adults to support both physical and mental well-being.
• Manage Stress: Utilize strategies like mindfulness, deep breathing, or social interaction to manage chronic stress, which can negatively impact health.
• Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids, preferably water, to support body functions and remove waste.
