Even without a lot of money, a man can remain in excellent health, the main thing is to know what exactly will help you maintain health without any costs.
Fun from night till morning
If you are used to going to clubs until the morning and having fun, then think about your health in later life, especially about your heart health. According to scientists from the Harvard School of Public Health, men who lead a nocturnal lifestyle have a twofold increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. Therefore, it is better to save money on treatment and simply spend more nights in your own bed.
Deep breathing
Researchers have found that young people with higher levels of hostility (a condition that carries a risk of premature death from heart disease) have poorer lung function. This has a negative impact on health, so experts advise breathing deeply if you feel negative emotions taking over and your blood boiling.
[ Sunlight
A recent study by scientists led by experts from the Harvard School of Public Health found that men who have low levels of vitamin D are twice as likely to have heart attacks as those who regularly get the "sunshine" vitamin.
Sex
Researchers from Wilkes University claim that regular sex promotes the production of immunoglobulins, antibodies that protect against colds and other infections.
Dream
Stanford researchers found that people who sleep less than 8 hours a night have a body mass index that is inversely proportional to how long they sleep. In other words, those who sleep less are more likely to gain weight.
Masturbation
The results of the research published in the Journal of the American Medical Association indicate that men who ejaculate more than 21 times a month reduce the risk of developing prostate cancer by 33%. Regular masturbation is an easily accessible and effective way to cleanse the prostate.
Water
Start your morning with a glass of water. This will set the entire digestive tract in motion and improve intestinal peristalsis, as well as relieve constipation. In addition, a glass of water on an empty stomach is an excellent method for preventing hemorrhoids and other diseases of the colon.
