What must you do to stay physically healthy?

Answer 1

The answer is simple. Eat well & exercise, and don't do anything to excess. Don't smoke or do drugs.

By eating well, eat whole foods as much as possible, over processed food. The more processed food is, the less healthy it is. Eat fruits & vegetables every day. Don't consume a lot of sodium and sugar, or excess starch. Don't eat fried food. Certain fats are good for you (like fish oil & avocado) while others are extremely unhealthy.

Find a physically active activity you enjoy doing, and do it regularly. The more sedentary one is, the more health issues will arise. Make sure it's something that gets your cardio up (heart pumping), because that is really what burns calories & keeps your heart healthy.

Finally, and possibly most importantly, keep a positive attitude. Your mental state has a huge affect on your body & immune system. When we become depressed or stressed, it makes us susceptible to illness. Keep a sense of humor, enjoy the good things, and shrug off the bad. Keep a happy mind & the body will follow.
