Healthy life-style

Nowadays people are becoming more health-conscious then they used to be. People try to live in a healthy way.

But what is a healthy life-style? In my opinion, it is a balanced rational nutrition, doing sports and absence of bad habits like smoking, drinking or using drugs.

Let’s start with nutrition. What kind of food should we eat, what is useful for our health? Scientists ascertained that food contains proteins, fats, carbohydrates, minerals and vitamins and we need to get a proper balance of all those substances. Doctors assure us that we won’t be able to live without vitamins – we will feel fatigue, will be always ailing, etc. And they are absolutely right, it was proved. So, our food should contain variety of vitamins. Eating a lot of fruit and vegetables is the best way to get vitamins. As for fats – of course they are very important as well – fats give us energy. But we shouldn’t eat too much fat food, because it influences our health with different negative consequences like obesity and illnesses connected with it. I would like to say a few words about some popular (especially among young people) products like crisps. Eating it we never think about quality of oil, but it’s really important. This oil contains carcinogen and it is very harmful for our health. We should be careful with oil, butter and some other products that contain cholesterol. And I think that it’s also important to eat various food. I read that in the nineteenth century American biochemist proved that monotonous food is harmful.

Another point that is not less important than balanced nutrition is doing sport. It’s very useful to take regular exercises, to go to gym and to jog to keep form. Sport makes you stronger, healthier. Well, on the one hand sport takes a lot of energy and time but on the other hand it helps to distract your mind from your problems, it improves your mood. And it’s very important to be in good mood. Also it is said that sport teaches person to be disciplined in some way. I want to say that it’s good idea to do sports regularly, not just from time to time. It’s much better to go to gym several times a week for about an hour, than once a week but for three hours. I don’t talk about going in for professional sport – exhausting trainings that can be even harmful…

You can hardly call your life-style healthy if you have bad habits. Fortunately, smoking has become less popular. Government in many countries has already banned smoking in public places.

There are a lot of young people who think that it is ok to drink a lot of beer because it isn’t strong alcoholic drink. But in a fact beer addiction is not better then addiction to vodka for example. In my opinion it’s not bad to have a glass of vine when you have a birthday, for example, but it is really harmful to drink alcoholic drinks without any special occasions, just to relax as some people do.

As for me, I think that my life-style is healthy. I don’t smoke. Every week I go to a swimming-pool. I learned to swim in different styles – crawl and butterfly. I even took part in school swimming competition. I try to eat healthy food that has a lot of vitamins. Maybe that’s the reason why I very rarely feel sick and am almost always in a good mood
