4 Sure-Fire Ways to Improve Your Health in Your 40s

Reaching the age of 40 is a milestone in your life and this is also a transition period for many of them as far as their body and health is concerned. It’s important to make wise choices in terms of nutrient intake and you’ll also have to exercise well to maintain your health in a good condition.

Well, in this article, we have listed out top 4 ways to improve your health in your 40s, which can be followed by both men and women in general.

1. Eat a Healthy Diet

The first and foremost way to remain healthy, irrespective of your age or sex, is to follow a healthy diet. Consume adequate quantity of nutrients, including fibers that lower cholesterol levels, heart-healthy nuts, fishes, and low-fat dairy rich in calcium. Unsaturated fats, minerals, vitamins, and unrefined grains will decrease plaque development on your artery walls, improve bone and muscular health, and avoid spikes in blood sugar. Also, avoid eating foods that increase your cholesterol levels as an increase in cholesterol level could lead to heart-related diseases.

2. Exercise Regularly

Regular exercising is as important as consuming a healthy diet. Get yourself involved in a regular exercise program atleast for 4-5 days per week at moderate to intense level as this can help in burning the stored body fat and reducing the risk of chronic illnesses.

3. Drink Adequate Quantity of Water

Maintain good hydration by consuming adequate quantity of water. Drink 16 cups of water if you are an inactive man or 11 cups if you are an inactive woman. If you are active, increase the amount of water intake further. After reaching the age of 30 itself, you’ll start losing a part of the total water content in blood, fat, and muscle stores. Reduction in your body’s water content increases the risk of illness and diseases, like high blood pressure, impaired brain function, and urinary tract infection.

4. Find Time to relax

As a part of your daily activities, find some time to relax yourself in a way that you would like to. This could be a relaxing walk, a midday nap, meditation, reading books or anything else that you feel would distress you. Too much of stress increased your tendency to store fat in the abdominal region, which inturn increased the risk of diabetes, abdominal obesity, and cardiovascular disease. So, take a short break!

Follow these tips to stay healthy after 40 and you are sure to enjoy the remaining years of your life as much as you enjoyed your youth.
