1. Fruits and vegetables, your allies


Do you like to eat fruits and vegetables? If so, positive point! According to experts, this type of food is the perfect company for balanced nutrition. In terms of portions, the previous recommendation is also expressed in the minimum consumption of five daily servings (two of fruits and three of vegetables), since eating more than recommended can represent a high portion of sugar for our body.

2. Activate your body


Diet is not everything! In addition to a balanced diet, exercise is the next habit that we must start practicing if we want to have a healthy life. In the event that we have been exercising for a short time, it is advisable to gradually increase both the intensity and the duration of the training, until achieving the set objectives. Very demanding routines are not a good option! (1.3)

3. Get vaccinated


Adults need vaccines too! Many have the false belief that the vaccines they give us when we are children are enough, but this is not the case. In pregnant women, for example, vaccination is almost a guarantee that the newborn does not acquire illnesses after birth or during the first months of life. For adults, they should be vaccinated against influenza or tetanus. (1.4)

4. Face stress


Analyzing, recognizing and admitting that we can suffer stress is necessary if we want to start taking care of ourselves. For example, if we get angry or easily irritated, have difficulty sleeping, suffer from constant headaches or stomach upset, then we may be suffering from stress or about to contract it. Do you feel stressed? (1.5)

5. Take care of your sexuality


Did you know that almost half of new infections occur in young people between 15 and 24 years old? So is! Most teenagers are the target of these diseases because their first sexual encounter is almost always unexpected. That is why maintaining good sexual practices is so important: it not only helps us prevent unwanted pregnancies, it is also essential to take care of our health and always be healthy.
