How do you stay healthy?

by•
Being a founder/builder is a lot of work and can take its toll on your health. What's your strategy for staying healthy? I'm a walker and can easily crank out 15+ miles a week, eat only plants and hit the gym 3-5x a week. What's yours?

Staying healthy encompasses various aspects, including accessing essential services like home care. If you're in Manhattan and seeking reliable home care services near you, it's essential to prioritize your well-being. These services offer personalized medical attention and assistance with daily tasks, ensuring comfort and support in your own home. By exploring available home care options nearby, you can take proactive steps towards maintaining your health and independence.

I think that I'm in the best position on that topic. As a PM of health solution, I'm trying and implementing the health suggestion for myself. Meanwhile, I do kundalini yoga and meditation on daily basis, but you know when you're above the 30s, sometimes it isn't enough. So I check my health markers from time to time and, for example, the last time I defined that my hormone profile needs to be improved and my inflammation is a little bit higher than the norm. I added some natural ways to improve it (like superfood) and became happy not just because I saw the better numbers, but mostly that I get a lot of energy.

@anna_panchenko ohh what superfoods did you try.
Hanna Barzakouskaya
@adriancole It depends on the lab test results. Just for example, when I discovered that my HDL was too low, I added Flax seeds and Chia. But when my lipid levels became perfect I stopped using it often. Although I still add them and the Goji berries to the porridge from time to time because I like their taste. Goji berries help with my dry eye disease. I also took DHEA supplements when my DHEA level appeared low as well as my cortisol level became abnormal hight. When it became the norm, I stopped taking it. I used to walk for 30 minutes per day, but some of the tests showed that that isn't enough. So I increase my walking to 60 minutes per day and started to listen to audiobooks because it seemed to me too much time to waste. So in general, I think that my health approach is clear.

I follow a semi-vegetarian diet. I avoid sugar and drink more water. Any physical activity for 30 minutes daily and 8 hours of sleep.
Adrian Cole
@manish_rawat1 The sleep is the hard part for me.

@manish_rawat1 Reducing the amount of sugar is key! Infact I build a site to keep me accountable for the same - to avoid sugar 😅 No Sugar Today

Good natural home made food, 7hrs sleep everyday, early mornings, stretch everyday, light aerobics 4-5 days a week, positive thoughts, light hearted music, some time in the Sun, intermittent fasting, conversations with friends and family, reading - news n books, less than 10mins meditation, create a bit - tweet/write/draw, journal, write down daily tasks, be nice to a stranger, be nice to people you live with, practice boundaries.. Healthy mind, healthy body.

@gogloballakshmi If your'e doing all this then you're definitely up there with your health!
Adrian Cole
@gogloballakshmi you're going to live to 200 with that schedule 📅
Lakshmi
@adriancole I just realised I mentioned nothing about work 😂
Lakshmi
@between_team yes, it has definitely helped me... this routine was the lesson learnt from a previous routine which almost killed me..
Natalie Karakina
Jogging in the morning and stretching in the evening
Adrian Cole
@nataliekarakina What stretching routine do you follow?
Justin Chitla
@nataliekarakina I am looking to be better about stretching! Is there a resource to help me? I have a very very weak back and I've been told to make sure my hip flexors are being stretched.
Dimitris Karavias
@justinchitla If you have a weak back you probably shouldn't stretch your hip flexors! Are you in pain or have a bad posture?
Justin Chitla
@dkaravias I've definitely heard of stretching the hip flexors so I've been giving that a try this week and will continue to do so. I actually stumbled on a good hip flexor stretch on tik tok lol!

Clean eating + good sleep + 10,000 steps a day. Have started following this regime recently and seeing good results. It's simple and easy to follow.
Adrian Cole
@chandru19902008 Thats a solid baseline.
Eileen Simons
@chandru19902008 100% that's one of my 2023 new year's resolution!
