Natural Awakenings magazine Milwaukee edition has a cover article on Dr. Oz' (of Oprah and his own show now fame) 25 Greatest Men's Health Tips. I recommend picking up the magazine which I found at Outpost Natural Foods as I did not find the article on the web site yet, hopefully it will be there, but here is the list sans his exposition on the benefits but with a quick note by me.
- Roll on the Floor Laughing - laughing eases stress and reduces blood pressure
- Don't Skip Breakfast - specifically fiber means less hunger later
- Hit The Sack - get seven hours of sleep
- Admire Your Work - snoop your poop
- Don't Pamper Your Bad Back - bed rest weakens back so get up
- Taste The Colors - eat foods with color, as many different colors
- Brushing Is Not Enough - floss
- Take A Deep Belly Breath - just one deep breath can calm
- Join A Yoga Class - Dr. Oz says: being surrounded by women in spandex is a good reason. I'll take his word
- Don't Be an Island - women may live longer than men due to more social networks
- Avoid Fad Diets - just lower calories intake by 100 (that's 10 pounds a year)
- Be a Smart Patient -second opinions, health journal, ask questions
- Lose the Beer Belly - belly size should be less than half your height (so for me at 66" tall my 32-33 inch waist is almost good). Oh and every pt of BMI above 25 is a 3% drop in testosterone - fat is unmanly
- Go Green - green tea that is
- Sweat Until You're Wet - one hour of hard, sweaty workout a week is all you need
- Save Some Money - personal finance is ranked number one stressor
- Have as Much Sex as Possible - tell your significant other (SO) Dr. Oz said so.
- Know Your Numbers, the Aim Lower - your heart numbers that is
- Add Some Weights - 30 min twice a week (okay so that is now 2 hours a week of workout)
- Grab Your Nuts - healthful fats and protein
- No, Seriously, Grab Your Nuts - or have your SO check them for you - catch testicular cancer early
- Hit the Dance Floor - mental and physical activity and may help #17
- Do Your Penis a Favor - if you burn 200 calories a day you lower chance of impotence
- Learn to Cook - control what you eat and women love men who can cook
- Some Pills Should Be Popped - Vitamin D baby
