7 Tips to improve your health

Improving your health is no big secret.  Here are 7 things you can do today.

1. Check your weight

Nearly three in 10 women and four in 10 men in England are overweight. Obesity reduces life expectancy by nine years. Find out if you’re a healthy weight using BMI charts.

If you need to bring your weight down, try to increase your exercise.

2. Drink less

Most people are unaware that regularly drinking too much alcohol than is advised by the NHS can lead to a wide range of long-term health problems, including cancers, strokes, and heart attacks. For example, men who regularly drink more than three to four units a day are three times more likely to have a stroke.

3. Eat less salt and fat

Excessive salt and fat in our diets is a major cause of chronic illnesses such as heart disease, stroke, and diabetes. Too much salt in your food can cause high blood pressure and make you three times more likely to develop heart disease or have a stroke. Two thirds of Britons have too much saturated fat in their diets, putting them at an increased risk of heart disease and stroke. Cut down on your salt levels.

4. Exercise regularly

The benefits of exercise aren’t limited to losing weight. Even if you’re slim, you’ll still get health benefits from exercising. A small amount of regular activity can lower the risk of developing major chronic diseases such as coronary heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes, by up to 50%. Regular exercise can cut the risk of premature death by 20-30%.

5. Eat more fruit and veg

For a healthy and balance diet, try to eat five portions of fruit and vegetables a day. Research shows that eating at least 400g of fruit and vegetables a day can lower your risk of serious health problems.

6. Keep stress in check

Psychological problems, including stress, are the underlying reason for one in five visits to a GP. If left unchecked, stress can lead to further health problems such as high blood pressure, anxiety, and depression.

7. Improve your sleep
Nearly everyone has problems sleeping at some point in their life. It’s thought that a third of people in the UK have bouts of insomnia. Aim for an average of seven to nine hours a night. Good sleep starts with a good bedtime ritual and some simple lifestyle changes.

“Just wanted to give you some positive feedback on my experience so far. I have to say the two gentlemen that delivered my treadmill were very polite, friendly and efficient. Also, I am impressed by the quality of the treadmill, I wasn’t expecting such a good quality treadmill and for it to be brand new too. I have been telling all my friends what a good service I have received and am very happy to recommend your company should anyone want to hire some home gym equipment.”

“We hired a treadmill so that my wife could keep up some gentle exercise at home while she was on maternity leave. The treadmill provided by Home Gym was perfect, a much sturdier model than I expected based on my experience of home treadmills, and at a fair price. Home Gym delivered and installed the treadmill within a few days of my enquiry and at a time convenient for us, then when it came to the end of our rental period there was no fuss – they came to pick it up immediately.”

From ordering to delivery and set up the customer service communication over the phone and via email has been brilliant and the team for delivery were polite, friendly and efficient. The treadmill we hired is outstanding and the quality is amazing, perfect for our pre-summer running training. If we had more space in our flat we would have definitely liked to keep it longer.
