Did you know that just walking for 30 mins, 3 or 4 times a week is enough to combat aging?
According to researchers at the University of California, one of the principle causes of deterioration of the human organism's physical faculties is its diminished ability to metabolize glucose. And they showed that even leisurely exercise, like taking a walk, plays an important role in keeping glucose metabolism functioning smoothly.
Do you spend the whole day sitting at your desk or in front of a computer screen? Why not get up occasionally and do a few minutes of physical exercise? don't worry about what other people think.
In some Japanese companies, it is even become a collective habit. Every twenty minutes a bell sounds, and everybody gets up to do some stretching exercises, after which they sit down again as if nothing had happened. Japanese managers are convinced taht their employees are more productive when they are relaxed.

Eat berries. Blueberries, blackberries and strawberries all have amazing benefits from high antioxidant levels. (Antioxidants help our cells fight against free radicals, which accelerate the rate at which we age.) The number-one anti-aging berry is called the acai berry. It's native to the rainforest of Brazil and is packed full of antioxidants, electrolytes, protein, vitamins and omega fats. You can't go pick acai berries at the side of the road, however. The most popular way of consuming it is in juice form. Acai juices can be found at your local health-food store.
Thank You Julie......
You are so Cute....
