Us lazy Brits will spend 17 years of our lives on the sofa, with seven
years of that devoted to watching TV. Next time you hear yourself say,
"I haven't got time to go to the gym" or you opt for ready meals because
you're too busy to cook fresh food, think about switching off the box
and doing something healthy instead.
Sunny side up
Get outside in the sunshine for a natural boost. The sun's rays on
the skin help your body produce vitamin D, which has been shown to fight
heart disease, depression, osteoporosis and even some types of cancer.
There's not a lot of sun around at this time of year, so make the most
of it when it does appear!
One is the magic number
One of the largest studies into diet and cancer – the Europe-wide
EPIC study – found that eating just one extra portion of fruit and
vegetables a day could cut your risk of dying early from any cause by 20
per cent.
