8 Best Health Tips For Women

1. Save your stress for a six. Stress can have significant health consequences - from infertility to an increased risk of depression, anxiety and heart disease. Find the stress reduction method that works fo

2. Stop following a diet. Eating healthy does not mean giving up your favorite glass of wine, or not eating a piece of chocolate cake every now and then. The answer is always moderation. Eat a variety of lean proteins, healthy fats, smart carbohydrates and fiber.


3. Do not overdo the calcium. Too much absorbed calcium can increase the risk of kidney stones. If you are under 50, try to take 1,000 milligrams a day, while women older than 50 should take 1 200 milligrams a day. This should be done mainly through their diet - about three servings of calcium-rich foods such as milk, salmon and almonds a week.


4. Do more than cardio. Women need a mixture of cardio and resistance or weight-bearing exercise at least three to five times a week to help prevent osteoporosis, heart disease, cancer and diabetes. Exercise also promotes a good self-esteem, which is really important for a woman's mental health.


5. Appreciate birth control. Birth control often gets bad publicity, but it does not just prevent pregnancy before you are ready - studies show that it lowers the risk of uterine and ovarian cancer and also regulates your cycle.


6. See your doctor every year. If you are 21 or older, get a Pap smear every three years to test for cervical cancer. If you are between 30 and 65, you should get both a pap smear and an HPV test every five years. If you are sexually active and have a higher risk of sexually transmitted diseases, get tested for chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis every year. Do not skip your annual visit. Your doctor should determine annually if there are any other problems such as potential infection, what your need for contraception is and if there are any sexual complaints.


7. Get more sleep. Sleep needs vary, but if you struggle to get up, get tired quickly, or struggle to concentrate, you may not get enough sleep. Recent studies suggest that it increases your risk of heart disease and psychological problems.


8. Consider genetic testing. Your gynecologist can now test women with a family history of breast cancer, ovarian cancer and chronic diseases to determine their risk, and then consider preventative measures.
