Health Smart






Get your Sight Right 
Many things effect eye heath, from diet, to exercise and make-up.Are your habits sight friendly?

Eat sweet potato and roasted beetroot.Sweet potatoes are rich in vitamin A, a night vision booster, while the anthologists in beetroot protect against retinopathy ( a cause of blindness) by preventing capillaries from leaking.

Trun the heating down.
It dries out the air and eyes.Group a few plants to add humidity.

Regular exercise may help glaucoma sufferers by reducing intramuscular pressure, which occurs when the aqueous humor ( the liquid between the lens and the cornea) pushes on the eye.In one study, those who walked for 40 minutes four times a week stopped needing medication.

How healthy is your heart?



Every year,an estimated 17 million people die of cardiovascular disease,particularly heart attacks and strokes.there are millions of people who will live the rest of their lives with the crippling fatigue of a failing heart.Many will die writing for transplants.Hoe can this still be happening?the truth is that we don't treat our heart with respect.Most of us exercise too little,and eat too much artery-clogging food,while stress compels our bodies to cope with high levels of damaging stress hormones.And yet,by putting in just 30 minutes a day-of exercise,relaxation,preparing healthier food -you can take powerful step to overcome the threats.you must consider all the risk factors-because the more you have,the greater the danger.Besides,research suggests that a moderate attack on all of them is more effective than just blitzing one.
Consider the Japanese island of Okinawa,where there are 67 people over the age of 100 for every 100,000 in countries like Italy,Norway And Singapore,it is slightly below two per 1000 people .Okinawa's death rate from heart disease is much lower than most countries,yet research has found that their longevity is largely down  that their longevity is largely down  to a health style.the Okinawan s have a modest diet rich in fruit,vegetables, soya protein and fish,and low in saturated fat.They take daily exercise and practice a relaxed outlook on life known as taygay.If we lived more like them,maybe our coronary care units could be shut down.time to take action.
