It Is Never To Late

IT’S NEVER TO LATE
So your 45 years old and you did about as much to your insides as one can do without your wife or husband thinking you were suicidal.
I have many friends who believe that the pharmaceutical companies are going to develop the miracle pill so they can welcome the return of their youth and look at themselves in the mirror and say, “Thank you Lord!”
The good news is, if you repent, lay off the booze, quit smoking, and start eating your vegetables, you actually have a pretty good chance of collecting your pension and enjoying it. It will however not be easy - old habits die hard!
It’s not your 401K you should be worried about 20 years from now, it’s your health. The human body is the most complex system known to mankind in the Universe. Treat it good and it will treat you good right back.
Here are a few retirement tips your stock broker won’t give you.
HEALTHY RETIREMENT TIPS
Follow these basic steps to reduce your risk of developing a wide range of deadly conditions or to keep a chronic disease in check. The benefit: A LONG AND HEALTHIER LIFE.
DIET: Lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean meats, fish, easy on the sugars and saturated trans fats. Consult your doctor on vitamins and other supplements you may need.
Engage in physical activity at least 3-4 times a week for 30 minutes. It could be walking, raking leaves, or exercise that is more vigorous. Add strength and flexibility exercises into your routine.
SMOKING: DON’T, and if you do, QUIT.
STRESS: Manage or reduce stress with exercise, stretching, relaxation, breathing, or other stress-control techniques.
CHECKUPS: Regular doctor visits and tests that include cholesterol to cancer screenings. By finding diseases or problems early it will make it easier to treat with a healthy diet and lifestyle.
LASTLY, you’ll set a good example for your children. On a personal level, you will feel and look great and find sex at 60 just as fulfilling as it was 30 years earlier. THAT IS WORTH LIVING FOR.
