we can’t deny it: as time passes, our bodies change & the 20s of a woman is critical. there are some factors that affect our health that we can’t control, but we definitely can make informed lifestyle choices!! here’s a post on how we can age properly and like a boss 😉
1️⃣ ESTABLISH HEALTHY HABITS
• cultivate a healthy relationship with food: start reducing the time you take-out & stop skipping breakfast!! 😤
• get active & stay active: balance strength & cardio training
2️⃣ BUILD A STRONG FOUNDATION
• take in enough vitamins & supplements: it’s about time that we start taking in supplements depending on our health condition (e.g. if you need more iron in your blood, take iron supplements.) generally, calcium & vitamin D are recommended for stronger bones 💪🏻
• squeeze in sleep: get between 7-9 hours of sleep, or at least try your best to do so!
3️⃣ PROTECT YOUR SKIN & ORGANS
• apply sunscreen religiously & start a skincare routine: this is so important & i think we all already know that 🤭 honestly the best thing i’ve learned is to apply sunscreen every day!!
• don’t smoke: a PSA to all ladies to quit now before it’s too late!!! there’s alot of implications on you and also your baby in the future too, so make sure you quit now 😤
4️⃣ SAFEGUARD YOUR FEMININE HEALTH
• flush infections: UTIs & yeast infections are really common among women, so make sure you practise good hygiene habits
• take charge of your reproductive health: contact your gynae for your reproductive health & the best contraceptive options
(i’ll be sharing a checklist on what to look out for in your 20s!)
this is really a PSA to myself and all women out there: time flies, so make the most of the time you have & be nice to your body!! TIME TO AGE LIKE A BOSS 🫶🏻
