When it comes to living your best, healthiest life, even small steps can lead to huge rewards.
In today’s email, we’ll quickly cover 3 simple ways you can improve your overall health so you feel better than you have in years.
1: Sleep In
So we don’t want to sleep our lives away, but it’s important that we ensure we are getting enough sleep.
It’s one of the most overlooked components of living your best, healthiest life because with lack of sleep you’ll not only suffer from an inability to focus (and of course, lack of energy), but you’re not allowing your body the time it needs to heal.
For the average person, 7-8 hours of quality sleep every night is sufficient.
2: Incorporate Probiotics into your diet
Another overlooked yet extremely important component of a healthy lifestyle is ensuring that the bacteria in your gut (known as “gut microbiota”) is at optimum levels. This will affect every aspect of your overall health!
Easy ways to improve gut health is to include probiotic foods into your diet, such as sauerkraut and yogurt. You can also take probiotic supplements if you find it easier.
And finally,
3: Hydrate!
Many of us suffer from not keeping our bodies hydrated enough. It’s easy to go hours without drinking water because we get so busy or distracted. But drinking plenty of water brings many different benefits, including:
- It’ll simply fill you up! – If you’re on a diet and trying to shed a few pounds, drinking plenty of water will help you feel full in between meals. It’s a great way to suppress your appetite.
- Burn Calories – Drinking water can ultimately boost the number of calories you burn as it directly increases your metabolism! But that’s not all: drinking plenty of water will help you get rid of your body’s waste.
