To be healthy today has many challenges. You maybe stuck to a job that requires you to seat for long hours, or you live in an environment that has very poor sanitation. However the good news is that we can actually control our health. No matter the circumstance, our habit has a strong correlation with our health status.

Today I will be giving you keys that will make you wealthy (it's not the key to a mansion, health is wealth). This keys involves basic steps we should take to achieve a healthy life.
Keep in mind that I understand that it is not as easy as it seems. But remember that the extra time and money you put will be repaid with few illnesses, medical bills and a happy life. Let's go!


1. Key to healthy eating

One of the most important factors in maintaining a healthy life is our eating. Let me just get straight to the point, eat more of whole, fresh foods and very less of processed foods. I can't really tell you to avoid them, because they its not possible. Just know that processed and prepackaged food usually has high fat, sugar and salt that causes heart diseases, cancer and stroke. The choice is yours. Remember, you are what you eat, so don't be cheap, fake and prepackaged.
Also drink a lot of fluids.


2. Key to exercising

Everybody is always emphasizing one exercise. I'm not a fitness expert but I will tell that proper exercise doesn't have to be complicated, painful or extreme to be effective. If you seat in front a computer for long hours, five days a week, take the remaining days to do simple jogging, cycling, in fact anything that makes you sweat and increases your heart beat. If you always drive needlessly, use you feet to walk. Help yourself by exercising, it pays in the long run.


3. Key to protecting your health

This key reveals the basic guidelines of how we can protect our health. The most effective strategy in protecting your health is by washing your hands regularly. Do you know that about 80 percent of diseases are transferred through the hand?. You should also take steps to avoid infected people and harmful health habits that could damage your body.


4. Key to caring for our basic body needs

If you were asked to mention three basic needs for body, what would you say?. I don't think you would include rest and sleep. Our body has many basic needs but the one it is mostly starved of is proper rest and sleep. That's because we can easily bypass it with caffeine or any other stimulant. Getting enough rest is very beneficial. Do you know that extra sleep could help you recover from many illnesses.


5. Key to health information

The basic way we can achieve a healthy lifestyle is through the right information. Always try to learn about your health and endeavor to educate others. Most times when you read about maintaining a good health, It would seem very complicated. "Do this, eat that or lose your soul". That's why we at youmustgethealthy blog make it simple and fun. Visit the doctor, visit healthcare websites, do all you can to learn about living healthy.

I love exercise

Keys to healthy living as applicable to Lagosians are;

1- Eat well; Eat good food and eat at least 3 times daily.
2- Sleep well; avoid any activity that will keep you up at night. Activities like clubbing, watching movies, playing games, vigil, etc.
3- Marry a good wife. Else, you wouldn't be able to do both No 1 & 2 above.


As for exercise, Lagosians are the masters when it comes to exercise; hustling for bus, standing in the BRT, avoiding KAI officials, playing football on environmental days, trekking from Idumota to Ajegunle during hold up, etc. Our lifestyle alone in lagos is exercising enough.


Lagosians, I hail o!

This post is so simple and straightforward. These tips are so simple that anyone can abide by them.

this keys are not enough

Nice

You forgot to add abstinence or protected s*x. It's very important in healthy living also but too many people are ignorant of this.

How come you didn't mention alcohol and smoking? It is very rare to see topics like this without condemning smoking and alcohol intake

Am trying to do all of this in this my one month work absence.
And i was suprised my aunty said am adding weight already.
I checked on the weight teller, i only added 2kg
Smh i need more!!!!

you dont have to register for a gym. search online for cardio exercises you can do at home . for example skipping rope, or jogging.

about the fruits, its not to eat fruits as a meal(its possible but you still need protein from other foods,) you can just eat an Apple before a meal since it fills you up and it helps you eat less and contains little calories.
