Maintaining your health is vital in enjoying life. This calls for a constant effort to monitor your physical well-being. To help with that, we’ve listed a few health tips you can follow to stay in tip-top shape.
1. Go for a regular checkup.
Annual physical exams (APE) are done to make sure that you are in perfect condition. To ensure your health is monitored, you have to take simple tests for your blood pressure, heart rate, and temperature, as well as more extensive ones like laboratory tests for your complete blood count (CBC), x-rays, and urinalysis.
SM HEALTH TIP: Get your APE at Healthway Medical, a one-stop shop for medical examinations and preventive care consultations given by reputable and experienced healthcare practitioners.

2. Watch what you eat.
We’re always reminded to eat our fruits and vegetables on a regular basis, and turns out - it works! Eating leafy greens and yummy fruits gives our body a natural supply of the vitamins and nutrients it needs to stay healthy, so make sure to include these in your diet.

3. Devote time to exercise.
To get the most out of practicing a healthier lifestyle, partner a proper diet with exercise. Getting those muscles pumped is a great way to keep your body active. Just a few minutes of exercise a day can do wonders for your body, inside and out.
SM HEALTH TIP: Get an exercise mat from Toby’s Store to give yourself a designated area for working out in the comfort of your home. Toby’s also offers sports and fitness equipment like basketballs, rackets, and even treadmills if you prefer a more vigorous exercise routine.
