5 Tips for a Healthier Lifestyle

5 Tips for a Healthier Lifestyle

We all know those cliche tips for a healthy lifestyle: drink water, exercise, get enough sleep, have a routine, and so on. But, oftentimes people don’t realise that a healthy lifestyle might mean switching some unexpected items from their household.

Keep reading and find out which are those. 

1. Avoid negative news

First and foremost, how many times have you woken up and scrolled through the news feed on any app just to find yourself feeling depressed or angry?

That happens to a lot of people, actually. Starting your day with negativity is the worst way you can start it.

Ditch that routine and switch it up with something more positive. Play your favourite songs when you wake up, dance, or sing (you don’t have to actually know how to sing). Doing so will elevate your happy hormones and your day might end up a whole lot better.

2. Switch to natural, non-toxic candles

Did you know that most of the candles are actually toxic and considered the number one air pollutant in households? Well, now you know! 

Most candles are made from paraffin wax that creates toxic benzene and toluene chemicals. And if you buy a scented candle, the odds are that it is made with harmful fragrances that poison you and your whole household. Check out this blog to find out how to find totally natural candles, made entirely from nature, that will bring only soothing benefits to you and your surroundings.

3. Find gummy vitamins that are actually helpful

Gummy vitamins are very popular, and they come in many different shapes, flavours, and sizes. But, many of those delicious, allegedly healthy treats are actually more harmful than useful. The downside of many gummy vitamins is that they owe their flavour to sugar, erythritol, mannitol, isomalt, and other sweeteners or even citric acid if they are sugar-free. All of these components affect our health badly; some of them wear our enamel down, some cause type 2 diabetes, and some can cause cancer.

You can buy healthy gummy vitamins on websites like chewwies.com, where they are made from real and healthy ingredients.

4. You don’t have to cut coffee out

How many times have you heard that coffee is bad for you? Well, that is not true as coffee is loaded with health benefits.

Coffee is rich in antioxidants and some studies have linked it to a reduced risk of type 2 diabetes, alongside promoting longevity. The best is to take it in moderation and keep it up to to 4 cups a day (unless you’re pregnant when you need to take it down a notch).

5. Use eco-friendly cleaning products

Every clean freak loves its hardcore cleaning products, right? Well, most of the mainstream cleaning products are harsh chemicals that not only affect our ecosystem but our health as well. It is important to use plant-based cleaning products, especially if you have children or pets.

By using eco-friendly, non-toxic cleaning products you help our planet recover and you will have a healthier and happier household.
