5 Steps To Live Longer & Healthier by Dr Ross Walker

If you are someone who wants to live longer and healthier these 5 steps keep coming up trumps:


1. Have Regular Health Checkups - Visit your GP every 3 months or less. Have them check your coronary (heart) health, calcium levels for bone density, Check for cancers - skin, breast & prostate and any other risk factors that pertain to you.


2. Do 3-5 hours per week of Quality Exercise - Whats your game? Walk, jog, play, skip, climb and factor it in at least 3 times a week.

3. Environmental Factors - such as too much sun, check the air quality you are breathing and water quality you are drinking, minimise exposure to electronics, microwaves in the environment and toxins.

4. Ask your GP about having a Genetic Health check - This is the way of the future and the future is now! You can have your entire genetic make-up mapped for risk factors and plan your life to minimise the risk factors and maximise your strengths.

5. Spiritual/Emotional/Mind Health - Studies show that those who regularly pray, meditate, ponder and take time out live happier, more fulfilled and longer lives. Also its shown to be important to set aside regular time for fun and enjoyment.

How to Turn Your Convertible into a Bus & Back Again


Today, in fact right now your body is in perfect balance. Your response - "How can that be? I need to lose weight and tone up, BIG TIME".

The finely tuned machine that you live and function in every day is a perfect expression of your current nutrition and the daily activity that you do.

In some ways our body is like a car - we fill up with high octane fuel at the station and drive around burning it off until we push the fuel gauge lower and we stop and fill some more. But what if your fuel tank was elastic? And instead of running it down to empty we fill and over fill our tank until it gets stretched to a semi-permanent state. Now the needle registers empty but there's still 10-20% of fuel to go. Imagine if our vehicle increased in size to accommodate the increase in fuel - if we weren't careful our convertible could grow into a wide berth bus!

Our stomach is an elastic fuel tank and literally resets the empty gauge sending our needle (or noodle) an inaccurate message. Our body perfectly adjusts in size and shape according to the fuel that we pump in and the amount of kilometres that we travel.

The great news is with a good plan, a little determination and some careful monitoring we can transform whatever we drive into a smooth well oiled purring machine that you are proud to drive. Its even possible to turn the odometer back!

There are heavy prime movers and mini-buses, there are slick low riders and flat back utes, there are family wagons and 2 door runabouts, vans, CRV's, trucks and semi's, MPV's, muscle cars and sports cars.

Which vehicle are you driving and what are you transforming it into?
