Healthy Habit No. 11: Drink Tea
“Decaffeinated tea is better”, noting that the caffeinated variety can be dehydrating, and sugary drinks can lead to weight gain.There is some evidence that tea may help in improving memory, and preventing cavities, cancer, and heart disease.”There may well be some beneficial effects of tea, particularly the potential antioxidant effect, but we don’t have great data on that right now that is that specific.”
However, there’s no doubt that a cool iced tea can be a refreshing treat during hot days. Try flavoring your tea with juices, fruits, cinnamon sticks, ginger, and other condiments.
Healthy Habit No. 12: Take a Walk
We already mentioned the merits of exercise in habit No. 5. Now, here’s how to incorporate physical activity into your daily life: WALK.
“Just move. Pace during phone calls, even while you’re brushing your teeth, while watching your son’s soccer game,” says Bryant, noting that every 20 steps a person takes is 1 calorie burned. An eight-year study of 13,000 people also showed that people who walked 30 minutes daily had a significantly reduced chance of premature death compared with those who dont walk.
And there are plenty of opportunities to walking:
- Take the stairs instead of the elevator.
- Window shop at the mall.
- Walk to the store.
- Leave your desk and visit your co-worker instead of sending him an email or chating.
- Walk and talk with friends instead of meeting for a meal.
