TOOLS FOR SUCCESS

 

Many factors affect your health. Some you cannot change, such as the genes you are born with or your age. But many you can control by changing how you live. Even small steps toward healthy living lower your risk of heart disease, diabetes, stroke and other serious health problems.

Small changes can bring big results. Pick one or two areas to start making a healthier you.

  • Eat healthy food
  • Keep a healthy weight
  • Exercise more often
  • Be tobacco free
  • Limit alcohol use
  • Check your cholesterol
  • Watch your blood pressure
  • Prevent or control diabetes
  • Know your family health history
  • Talk with your doctor, nurse or other health care provider
  • Take medicines as directed

Start small. For example, eat more fruit and vegetables and take a brisk walk every day.
