HEALTHY TO A POINT
I am like most people I would say, I eat less fat foods, try to eat more healthy and drink more fluids. Fresh fruits and vegetables are one of my most favourites, especially right from the garden. The ripe tomatoes, fresh lettuces, cucumbers. If you live somewhere were the climate is ideal for gardening it is a bonus. And especially living in Austria the milder weather makes it perfect. There are places that have their own fruit trees from cherries , apples and apricots.
I also do take multi vitamins and other needed things. The supplements are important for ones body. (after checking with the doctor and finding out I had low iron and potassium).
Vitamin D is one that has many benefits according to a study. People living in the northern hemisphere are lacking Vitamin D. The normal way to get D is through exposure to the sun, and well it is darker in the fall we are less outdoors and exposed to the suns rays.
Drinking more is not a problem for me, we picked up a sodastream and I fill the bottles with water daily. Some people drink teas or coffees more. Teas such as green tea is one that has been popular. But there are also supplements available. The benefits that are mentioned its antioxidant properties, reported to help lose weight and even help prevent cancer. Anyone who takes green tea supplements should be careful. Recent news report of damage to liver , kidneys and other issues have been reported in America and Canada. This is a very serious health matter, as one man needed to have a liver transplant after taking green tea supplements.
So staying healthy is important, but be careful of some health products and always check with your doctor before taking anything new be it health supplements or medicines.
