There are many things you can do to reduce the age of your internal organs, and in turn lengthen your life and give you loads more energy. Often these things are simple lifestyle changes that you easily incorporate into your daily routine.
Everybody should be doing some strength building activities at least twice weekly to improve bone density and improve overall health. One way of doing this is to carry your shopping instead of wheeling it in a trolley, or carrying it all the way home. Many bags for life are designed to lift 15 to 20kg, and most of us will be easily able to carry 5 or 6kg in each hand. So simple!
When you stop for lunch and at the end of the day do 20 repetitions of sit to stand, without using your hands, only using them to help keep your balance. This is very important for maintaining knee and hip strength.
Prebiotics feed good bacteria in the gut and can possibly contribute to healthier bones. Green bananas are really good for this, so try and not let them get overripe.
If your watching tv for long periods of time, put some ankle weights on. Every time the adverts come on do some leg lifts. This can really help strengthen the leg muscles and good for circulation.
Another useful thing to do is to go upstairs on tiptoes. This will strengthen the muscles of the legs and improve balance.
Simple changes that can be very effective in maintaining your health and reducing the age of your organs.
