Harvard Health Tips
Studies suggest that aerobic
exercise can improve cognitive capacity in people older than 55.
The effect was greatest for “executive control”
functions judgment, planning, and the coordination of actions to
achieve a goal.
Staying lean ranks second only to
avoiding tobacco as the most effective way to improve your
cancer odds.
There’s now good evidence that being overweight or obese is
related to higher risk for cancer of the colon, endometrium (the
lining of the uterus), kidney, breast (after menopause), and the
lower esophagus.
Nicotine replacement is safe, even after a heart attack.
Just as
important, gum, patches, and other nicotine delivery systems are
safer than continued smoking. They don’t increase the clotting
potential of blood or damage the fragile but important lining of
blood vessels, as smoking does. Source: Harvard Health
