每天做些小事可以更健康

Let's be real. Being healthy all the time sounds kind a time-consuming. Your life is busy enough. On the other hand, we all deserve to feel good, am I right? We went to the experts to get simple, actionable, everyday to-dos that will keep you feeling and looking energized, fabulous, and all-around healthier.

說實(shí)話，一直保持健康聽起來是件耗費(fèi)時(shí)間的事情。你的生活本就忙忙碌碌了。但另一方面，我們都應(yīng)該自我感覺良好，對(duì)不?我們咨詢了專家，請(qǐng)教了一些簡(jiǎn)單的、可操作的日常小事，這些小事將會(huì)讓你看起來更加有精神、光彩奪目，而且還更健康。

1. Find one small way to add more steps to your day.

1. 找一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的方法，每天多走幾步。

We sit too much, says Martha Gulati, MD, editor-in-chief of the American College of Cardiology's CardioSmart. Get closer to your 10,000 daily steps by switching up just one daily routine: Park at the end of the office parking lot, get off the bus/subway one stop earlier and walk the distance, deliver a message in person rather than I Ming a coworker, or take the stairs instead of the elevator or escalator (even if you can only manage 1-2 floors on foot). Be active asmuch as possible.

我們坐著的時(shí)間實(shí)在是太久了，美國(guó)心臟病學(xué)會(huì)CardioSmart的主編瑪莎·古拉蒂醫(yī)學(xué)博士說道。只需改變一個(gè)日常步驟，你就能離每天一萬步的目標(biāo)更近一點(diǎn)：在辦公停車場(chǎng)的末端停車、提前一站下公交車/地鐵，走一站的距離、走到同事身邊告訴他某件事而不是通過聊天軟件告知、或者爬樓梯而非乘電梯(即便你只能爬一兩層)。盡可能多的活動(dòng)。

2. Take the earbuds out-for just 5 minute at least.

2. 將耳塞取出--至少5分鐘

Pure Yoga instructor Alison O'Connor believes in spending time alone every day. "Taking a few minutes for yourself-away from social media, work, entertainment, and anyone who demands something from you-can go a long way toward mental health." Ditch technology and make you your priority.

Pure Yoga的教練艾莉森·奧康納認(rèn)為每天應(yīng)該有獨(dú)處時(shí)間。"留幾分鐘給自己--遠(yuǎn)離社交媒體、工作、娛樂和任何有求于你的人--這樣有助于帶來長(zhǎng)期的精神健康。"扔掉現(xiàn)代科技，自己才是最重要的。

3. Go to bed. Now.

3. 上床睡覺!就是現(xiàn)在!

"Sleep is one of the most essential activities of the human body. It's while we sleep that our body is most efficient at recovering and healing itself," says O'Connor. Brooklyn-based nutritionist Julie Fishkin adds that most adults need at least 7-8 hours in order to stave off depression and keep stress hormones at bay, preventing you from overeating.

"睡覺是人體最重要的活動(dòng)之一。睡覺的時(shí)候我們的身體才能最有效的恢復(fù)和治愈，"奧康納說道。布魯克林的營(yíng)養(yǎng)專家Julie Fishkin補(bǔ)充表示，大多數(shù)成年人需要至少7至8小時(shí)的睡眠才能避免抑郁、遠(yuǎn)離壓力荷爾蒙，預(yù)防自己暴飲暴食。

4. Refill your water bottle.

4. 水杯加水

Most of us don't drink enough fluids (and no, wine doesn't count-the alcohol is dehydrating). Water helps your skin look fresh, it flushes your bodies of toxins, helps maintain healthy bowel functions (goodbye bloat, hello flatter belly), and keeps muscles from getting fatigued. If you don't already own one, invest in a cute reusable water bottle.

我們大多數(shù)人喝的流體并不夠多(不，酒不包括在內(nèi)--酒會(huì)讓人脫水)。水能讓你的肌膚鮮嫩、沖走體內(nèi)毒素、幫助維持健康的腸功能(再見腹脹，你好平坦小腹)，讓肌肉不至于疲勞。如果你還沒有水杯，那就花錢買一個(gè)可愛的、可重復(fù)使用的水杯吧。
