9. Food, dangerous food

From the childhood we should pay great attention to what we eat since bad eating habits are often the most important causes of such fatal diseases as heart attack, stroke and many other illnesses when we are older.

Modern eating habits are very destructive. Especially today’s children are in more danger of different diseases than their parents and grandparents. Great deals of children do not eat anything in the morning and come to school tired, empty and irritable. They take pizza and chips instead of salad and fish at school canteens. But for the reason of staying healthy organic food should be chosen in the first line.

To keep our health we should eat normally and do a lot of physical exercises. It is very useful to keep to a diet and to exercise in the morning and not to eat snacks, especially at night! If you eat meat, chicken and fish are much better than red meats. They’re good for your body and mind, too. We should remember that fizzy drinks, tea and coffee are all ‘diuretics’, which means that they take water away from the body. Fizzy drinks also reduce the amount of healthy substances which the body can take from food.

Try putting away all those drinks and having lots of water to make your skin clearer and your eyes shine – so a healthy lifestyle means prettier looks, too.

10. Coping with stress

Nowadays there are a lot of reasons for having stress. But we should know stress can have a very bad effect on our mind and body. It can cause sleeplessness, worry, sudden changes of mood, depression and illness.

There are many ways of not causing stress or coping with it. First we should try to plan our life since much stress is caused by doing things when there isn’t enough time. If we feel prepared, stress will have less chance.

Keeping our body healthy reduces stress as well. We should stop drinking too much coffee and eating so many sweet things. Getting enough sleep and vitamin C, exercising in the morning and going for longer walks at least once a week also help us cope with stress.

Deep breathing is the next thing to be done to cope with stress. It works because getting more oxygen into our body relaxes us. We can either take up yoga or simply try breathing in deeply through our nose then letting the air out through our mouth, and then repeat it ten times.

Thinking positively, telling people about our problems and taking actions instead of putting things off are also good ways of being safe from stress.

11. Eating out

Nowadays some people like to eat and prepare all food at home, but others choose to eat in restaurants. Who is right? In my opinion, it is better to eat at cafeterias, tea-rooms or somewhere else. Atmosphere there is more comfortable and pleasant, food is more delicious and different from homemade. Of course, it is a good possibility to spend very nice evening with friends.

Moreover, for some people who don't know how to cook for those who are very busy, eating out is a good way to eat tasty meal instead semises and without tiring hours of cooking.

Nevertheless, there are those who claim that we need to cook food at home, because we can watch the process of cooking and enjoy it. Furthermore, they think that you can make food with your children or relatives and so it is a good way to drift together with them. Also they regard that it is more economic to eat at home. But they fail to consider that is you come to the restaurant you can delight live music and atmosphere there. The main thing is that you don't need to worry about washing the dishes.

In conclusion, I would say that eating at home has some advantages, for example is saves your incomes, allowing you buy new things. But I prefer eating in different restaurants, because it is more convenient.
