Easy But Effective Tips To Boost Your Health

Here are 9 very simple and quick tips to boost your health and put some zest into your life. Ready? off we go

Tea off in the morning.
Yes, a morning cuppa. According to a review in the International Journal of Cancer, hot tea can slash your risk of kidney cancer by 15 percent. Try pu-erh tea, which is better than green or black tea at preventing DNA damage.

Sleep smarter..zzzzz
Get things right here because too much sleep, or not enough of it, can kill you! A British study found that getting more than 9 hours of sack time a night, or less than 6, increases your risk two fold of an early death from any cause. So aim for 7 to 8 hours a night.

Pop in your lenses after showering.
Soaping up while wearing your contacts can expose your eyes to infection-causing waterborne microbes, say University of Illinois at Chicago researchers.

If you want to stay lean, drink wine.
Polyphenols, the compounds found in red wine, help your body block fat absorption, an Israeli study found. Red-wine marinades work, too.
Lose the lint..no joke!

Try not to chuckle...Taking 2 seconds to empty the lint trap in your clothes dryer can prevent you from being one of the 315 dryer-fire victims every year in the United States.

Sit back....and take it easy.
Parking your torso at a 90-degree angle strains your spine, say Scottish and Canadian researchers. Instead, give your chair the La-Z-Boy treatment and recline the seat back slightly. The ideal angle is 45 degrees off vertical.

Boost up your defenses
An Archives of Internal Medicine review reports that 400 IU of vitamin D a day reduces your risk of an early death by 7 percent. The best way to get your vit D is sunlight, at least 15 mins a day.

Skip the spray...
Try wipes instead. Using household spray cleaners just once a week increases your risk of an asthma attack by a staggering 76 percent, say Spanish researchers.

Steam your broccoli
Italian researchers recently discovered that steaming broccoli increases its concentration of glucosinolates (compounds found to combat cancer) by 30 percent. Boiling actually lowers the levels.

Keep these simple tips in mind and you will definitely see a boost in your health.
