The New Year is a new opportunity to enhance your health and well-being. When you pledge to stand by Simplefill’s set of New Year’s Resolutions, you’ll be on the path to a healthy and happy 2014!

Wash Your Hands

According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, washing your hands is one of the most pivotal ways to avoid getting sick. Make sure the water is warm, and sing “Happy Birthday” twice through (for about 30 seconds) to ensure your hands are germ free.

Don’t Skip Breakfast

There’s a reason breakfast is called the most important meal of the day. This year, pledge to eat healthy by eating a protein-rich breakfast. Not only will it give you an energy boost to kick start the day, but it will also curb cravings and help you resist the urge to snack.

Get Moving

Take a 15 to 20 minute walk after dinner each night. This health tip will prevent your blood sugar levels from spiking and keep diabetes at bay.

Stay Hydrated

Get a water bottle that you can take on-the-go. According to the Mayo Clinic, men should consume about 3 liters of water daily, and women should set their sights on 2.2 liters. By staying hydrated, you’ll help your body carry nutrients and flush out toxins.

Strengthen Your Bones

Are you getting 200 mg of calcium per day? Whether drinking milk or taking vitamins, this is a key way to ensure your bones are staying strong.

Invest in SPF Moisturizer

Sunscreen isn’t just for the beach. Invest in a daily facial moisturizer that contains at least SPF 15. SPF moisturizers help prevent wrinkles and reduces the risk of skin cancer.

Get That Shut-Eye

According to the National Sleep Foundation, adults need at least 7 hours of sleep every night. A good night’s rest can prevent a number of health issues, including depression, obesity, and heart problems.

Armed with these tips, you can charge into 2014 with the confidence of building a healthy, happy, and successful year. Contact us today for more information on Simplefill and our services!
