10 Ways to Extend a Healthy Life

Vancouver (PRWEB) December 23, 2010

Whats the difference between the day before your birthday and the day after? Practically speaking, nothing at all, declares Colin Milner, CEO of the International Council on Active Aging (http://www.icaa.cc), a membership organization that brings together professionals in the independent and assisted living, fitness, rehabilitation and wellness fields to dispel society's myths about aging..

Whether youre turning 30, 40, 50, 65, or 90, theres no reason to assume youre doomed to decline after a certain ageespecially if youre doing everything you can to stay healthy and active.

Milner offers the following E-tips to help you extend a healthy life, or embark on one if you havent yet done so (citations available on request):

Expectations: If youve been following a healthy lifestyle up 'til now, simply keep going; if you need to make changes, anticipate succeeding, not failingand dont let age be a barrier. Research has shown that thinking positively about getting older can extend your life by as much as 7.5 years.

Enthusiasm: Few people are thrilled with every aspect of their lives, but many have at least one areafamily, friends, work, avocationthey feel good about. Identify an activity or connection that sparks your enthusiasm and make it your lifeline; try to extend that enthusiasm to other areas of your life.

Energy: Having the energy and motivation you need to age well are hallmarks of healthy living. If youre fatigued all the time, dont let apathy and lethargy drag you down; get a checkup to try to determine the causeand the solution.

Eating: Eating a balanced diet and attaining/maintaining a normal weight are keys to physical and mental health; if you need to lose weight or make changes in your diet, keep your expectations highyou can do it.

Exercise: Staying physically active fuels the body and mind. If youre already exercising regularly, keep it up; if youre getting started, know your skill level, set goals, progress at your own pace, and be consistent.

Engagement: Volunteers have higher levels of well-being and life satisfaction than those who dont volunteer; volunteering and other forms of civic and social engagement can play an important role in maintaining good health in later life. Get involved, Milner urges.

Emotions: Everyone feels down at times, but full-blown depression is a major cause of disability. If youre feeling out of sorts for two weeks or more, talk with your doctor or take an online screening test at http://www.mentalhealthscreening.org/. In many instances, simply exercising and eating right can change your mood.

Education: Life-long learning is important to living an independent and fulfilling life. Start now to learn a new area of knowledge or physical activity. Its good for the brain.

Effort: Changing expectations and embarking on new behaviors take energy and effort, but the results are well worth it.

Enjoyment: A healthy life generally is a joyous one. Savor the process of being or becoming active, engaged, and truly alive, Milner enthuses.

The new year is a great time to take stock and ask yourself, where do I want to go from here?, Milner says. Emphasize the positive and dont let your age, or anyone else, deter you.

Eating Healthy On A Budget

If you have problems serving healthy foods because of the prices, you’ll find these tips to be just what you need to eat healthy on a budget.

1. Eliminate junk food
Doing your shopping on your own is the easiest way to shop, as children and sometimes spouses are usually the ones requesting junk food. Shopping alone will prevent this, and ensure that you only buy the foods you need.

2. Water or milk instead of soft drinks
You can still enjoy your favorite drinks at a sporting event or night out, although you should stick with the smallest size when shopping to save money and calories. Children and even adults need milk or milk products on a daily basis. Milk will also help you get strong and provides calcium for healthy bones and healthy teeth.

3. Buy fruits in quantity
When they are in season, buy fruits in quantity and freeze any extras. You can buy several pounds this way, and freeze extras to have them when the fruit goes out of season. Wash the fruit well, remove any spoiled pieces, dry thoroughly, then freeze in plastic zipper bags.

4. Meats and beans
Meats and beans are the best sources for protein. Lean meat is more expensive than meats with a lot of fat. Canned beans are a great deal as well, as they give you protein at a great price.

5. Beans as a substitute
You should use beans a substitute for meat on a frequent occasion. There are several varieties, so you can prepare them in a crock pot, so when you return home they are ready to consume. The USDA recommends eating beans at least 4 times per week. If you experience gas after eating beans you should try washing them, covering them with water, bringing the water to a boil, then draining it off and refilling the pot.

6. If you live in a coastal area or an area where fish are around, make that an integral part of your diet. You can catch them from the lakes or rivers, saving money in the process.

7. Peanut butter is great for those on a budget as it’s popular with almost everyone. You can use it for sandwiches instead of eating hot dogs. It does need to be refrigerated, although bigger jars can last you for weeks.

8. You should fill up with foods that have a high content of water. Watermelon, salads, and even sugar free gelatin are all great examples.

Eating healthy is always something you can’t go wrong with. You can eat healthy for just a few bucks, which makes it perfect for those on a budget. Now, you don’t need a lot of money to have the lifestyle and health you’ve always wanted.
