Waling with Bob

There’s A NAP for that!

I just had another 35th birthday and it was the 49th time. It was fun. In order for me to stay 35 years old every year, I need to pay attention to four simple things:

Water: Get addicted to it instead of sugar drinks.

Food: Eating 6 or more fresh or frozen fruits, veggies and nuts every day is a doable deal.

Walk: Walking briskly for a minimum of five minutes but get up to 20 t0 forty minutes a day for the rest of your life. 

Sleep: “There’s A NAP for that.” Google gave more opinions about when and how much sleep we need and it is so important for your mental and physical health. Babies sleep as much as 14 hours per day for a reason. They need it and we do too. Infants, toddlers, and kids until the hit the teens need about 9 to 14 hours of sleep. 

There is a lot of sitting, computer stuff, bad food and sugar drinking going on. Obesity is serious and sugar diabetes is an epidemic. Bad sleeping habits are a part of the cause.

A solution is simple and doable, and you can start now. Drink more water. Eat more fruits, veggies and nuts. Walk briskly for 20 to 40 minutes every day.
