10 Healthy Tips To Change Your Life in 10 Seconds or Less
Drink Your Milk
Think you're getting a nutritional boost from
your morning cereal? Up to 40 percent of the vitamins in fortified
cereals dissolve in the milk. If you don't drink the leftover cow juice,
you're not getting the fancy-pants nutrients!

Ice It, Ace It
Drink a few glasses of ice-cold water before and during exercise.
Studies show that the cold stuff can improve endurance by about 23
percent. And ice water forces your body to expend calories warming it
up, boosting your metabolism as well.

Lift, Damn It!
Verbally expressing emotion while lifting
increases muscle strength by up to
25 percent. (Of course, it also increases your risk of being tossed out
of the gym by the same percentage…) Or get someone to scream at you:
You'll be able to lift 5 to 8 percent more weight if you get verbal
encouragement from a trainer or workout partner.

Bribe Yourself Fit
Bet a colleague (like the one who's not so
secretly gunning for your job) 50 bucks that you can stick to your
workout program for 6 months. Studies show that those who do achieve an
average 97 percent success rate. Alternate plan? Schedule your workouts,
then put a few bucks in a jar for each one you make. Pledge the money
toward something sweet, like a new bike or a trip to Vegas.

Pick The Red One
Red cabbage has 15 times as much
wrinkle-fighting beta-carotene as green cabbage. Red bell peppers have
up to nine times as much vitamin C as green ones.

Spear a Hangover
To reduce the severity of a hangover, order a
side of asparagus. When South Korean researchers exposed a group of
human liver cells to asparagus extract, the extract suppressed free
radicals and more than doubled the effects of two enzymes responsible
for metabolizing alcohol.

Listen To Your Feet
If you can hear yourself running, you're setting
yourself up for injury. Pounding the pavement comes from bad form. Keep
your feet close to the ground and use a quick, shuffling stride.

Don't Buy Wheat Bread
Huh? Isn't it good for me? Actually, "wheat
bread" is often just white bread dyed with molasses to make it look
dark. Look instead for "100 percent whole wheat" or "whole grain." Even
better: rye bread. Swedish researchers found that 8 hours after people
ate rye, they felt less hungry than those who noshed wheat bread, thanks
to rye's high fiber content.

Cheat With Your Weights
Lift a weight as many times as you can. Then,
when you can't complete one more repetition, use your free hand (or a
workout buddy) to help push your weighted hand through another rep. Once
you're at the top of the move, remove your free hand and slowly lower
the weight. Studies show that negative resistance exercises like this
are more effective at muscle building than standard exercises.
