Having a long, healthy life means doing the little things that count. The little habits that don’t take much time but still add up in the long-run. And turns out we’ve got 9 handpicked one-minute habits you can do every day.
Some of these you can do right now, wherever you’re reading this. And that’s just a bit tempting.
Switch from red meat to fish: Many studies have shown time and again that eating red meat regularly can be bad for the heart and increase the risk of developing colon cancer. However, eating fish can significantly cut down the risk of both heart problems and cancer. They are a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which when properly balanced with omega-6 fatty acids, can be very beneficial for reducing inflammation.
Drink red wine: Red wine is very useful for keeping away Alzheimer’s disease, heart disease, cancer and Type 2 Diabetes. The compound ‘resveratrol’ in grapes is thought to be responsible for these benefits. The key is not to go overboard and limit consumption to just a few glasses a week.
Microwave the kitchen sponge: While we often consider the toilet seat as the haven of microbes, in truth, the kitchen sponge can have more microbes than the toilet seat! Microwaving the sponge for 30 seconds can kill most disease-causing microbes in it.
Take vitamin supplements: Make sure that you get the required amount of vitamins and minerals to keep away vitamin and mineral deficiencies that are responsible for different ailments like osteoporosis, heart disease, cancer, common cold, memory loss, dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. But make sure you’re taking high quality supplements since many supermarket brands are worse than skipping them.
Don’t forget to buckle your seat belt: Save yourself from the worst brunt of car accidents by doing one simple thing – wear your seat belt! About 40,000 people die every year in US due to car accidents. Most deaths could have been prevented if they’d fastened the seat belt.
Treat yourself to dark chocolate occasionally: Dark chocolate has been shown to have several benefits – it cuts down the risk of heart disease, improves memory in elderly people, helps metabolize glucose more efficiently and fights against stress and depression.
Take deep breaths often: Whenever you get some free time inhale deeply, take in a deep breath through one nostril, count till 4 and exhale through the other nostril. Do this as often as you can, because it melts stress and calms your mind.
Rinse mouth after meals: Rinsing is a better way to prevent acidic food from corroding the tooth enamel better than brushing the teeth. Plain water or unsweetened tea are good for rinsing mouth and preventing germ buildup.
Sleep on your left side: A study published in the journal ‘Chest’ reveals that nearly 25 percent of Americans experience heartburn in the night. This can be prevented by sleeping on the left side. This stops the acid from esophagus from flowing back into the esophagus.

What majority of the people including doctors do not know is that we have a nasal cycle in every healthy human being i.e. every 60 to 90 minutes the breath keeps changing from right to left and vice versa. And infact we do not breathe from both the nostrils. Lying on your left side also helps in proper digestion of food and getting good sleep. Do it and then you will believe it. Good Luck and God Bless. Cheers! :o)

I don’t live anywhere near the gulf coast, but the enirte U.S. economy is going to take a huge hit from this. The vast number of wildlife killed [fish come to mind…the fishing industry in that area is virtually decimated] will drive prices up. The real tragedy is that the oil spill occurred in an area that I’m sure has not fully recovered from Hurricane Katrina..economically, physically, and emotionally. Besides that, think of stock. BP stock is at about 1/2 its price since the oil spill, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it continued to fall. People are skeptical of other oil companies as well..what if they’re as negligent as BP was and something like this happens again? As a disclaimer, though, I can’t really speak definitively on anything stock related not knowing much about it.The main thing I’d say would be look around you. Watch the news. Read the paper. If that doesn’t do it, take a little trip down to Louisiana and talk to any number of people affected by this crisis. Yes, crisis. They don’t call it the worst oil spill in our nation’s history for nothing.
