6 Easy Ways to Extend Your Life in One Minute or LessBy Dr. Mehmet OzIf your
reason for not adopting healthier habits is that you don't have enough time,
consider your problem solved: I've put together a list of practices that could
literally add years to your life, and each one can be done in 60 seconds or
less.Get Up Every HourA recent study in the Journal of the American College of
Cardiology discovered that people who sat for four or more hours a day outside
work had a 50 percent greater risk of dying from any cause than those who sat
less than two hours a day. I recommend taking a minute-long walk at least once
an hour. Every step counts toward the 10,000 you should be taking every day.Eat
an EggThis nutritional powerhouse does a body good: One egg provides 13 percent
of your daily protein requirement and only 4 percent of the average recommended
daily calorie count. Plus, it contains a hefty dose of lutein, an antioxidant
that protects your eyes from macular degeneration and UV damage. An egg a day
may even help prevent Alzheimer's: The yolk is a significant source of choline,
a nutrient that reduces inflammation in the brain.Take ChromiumResearch shows
that the trace mineral helps maintain proper blood sugar levels by increasing
cells' sensitivity to insulin, steeling your body against type II diabetes.
Swallow 200 micrograms a day of chromium polynicotinate.Don't Forget to
FlossWhen left to their own devices, the bacteria hiding between your teeth
will infect your gums and enter your bloodstream, where they can cause
inflammation in your arteries and contribute to plaque buildup on blood vessel
walls. Recent studies have linked gum disease to other problems, too, ranging
from respiratory infections to neurodegeneration.Check Your PulseBefore you get
out of bed in the morning, press your index and middle fingers against the
inside of your wrist below your thumb and count the beats for 30 seconds. Then
double that number. A 2010 study found that compared with a normal resting rate
of 60 beats per minute, a rate of 90 or above triples a woman's risk of dying
from heart disease. If your heart rate is high, consider adding more omega-3
fatty acids to your diet.Do Self-MassageStress damages every organ in your
body. For quick relief, press your thumbs against the sides of your nose just
below your browbone; then walk your index and middle fingers across your brows
and finish by lightly rubbing your temples. Massage prompts a drop in cortisol
and adrenaline and a surge in feel-good endorphins.
