Being healthier doesn’t always have to mean major lifestyle changes and giving up all your favorite foods. These small efforts (some of which you’re probably already doing) are easy to do but pay off big in terms of health benefits.

• Flossing Flossing daily not only helps keep your teeth healthy by getting rid of nasty bacteria hiding in the places your toothbrush can’t reach, but it also helps protect your overall health by keeping that bacteria from building up and entering the bloodstream, potentially causing problems like hypertension, diabetes, and heart damage.
• Eat every 2 -3 hours to keep your metabolism revved up and hunger at bay. You’ll be less likely to have cravings and binge in the evenings.
• Make your morning coffee at home instead of buying it from a shop on the way to work. You’ll save money and calories.
• Do Kegel exercises As many as 25% of women over the age of 18 experience occasional urinary leaking, but Kegel exercises help by strengthening the pelvic floor muscles.
• Get your Vitamin D levels checked by asking next time your at the doctor’s office. Many women are chronically low on Vitamin D and at increased risk for fatigue, bone loss, and even Alzheimer’s.
• Play slow music at dinner Slow music = slower eating, which is not only more enjoyable but gives your body a better chance to signal when full, so you’ll be less likely to overeat.
