I woke up this morning and was feeling not to well as in slight stomach cramps and a mild cold. I think it makes much sense for me to write about this issue today. 

Does being ill reduces your general productivity.

Of course it does. Even the slightest discomfort would. I guess when you are ill, your nerves are telling your brain to slowdown and to give some extra caution to what ever is infected. And generally we don’t and we as super human beings love to work. That’s when you notice, you are not performing as you planned or did before. So what are certain things that could be taking into consideration in order to reduce our selfs from becoming ill.

Exercising said to be key rule? 

Of course I would agree with that. But do we have time? Can we find time is a better question here. You could be like Jonathan Fields who burns 600 calories a day while blogging. I would rather say to wake up a little extra perhaps. Don’t complain on waking up early as you would be feeling fresh once you are done with a simple JOG. You could do Yoga and trust me it has helped a lot to some. Personally, if you have a treadmill, a couple of minutes is good enough. Burns some calories and loose some sweat. You are already on a healthy track.

Having the right supplements & remedy. Take your medications at the right time!

There are a lot of people out there who are looking at alternatives and new researched mind boggling biological medications from plants or so to stay save. I’m not a pharmacist nor a doctor but I guess I would stick to a doctors prescription and maintain the exercise routine as I mentioned above. The reason is simply this. I would rather trust someone who has done various research and studies regarding your personal health rather then following an ordinary guy promoting a product . There is no offense to anyone with such products here.  This is just me I guess. There is nothing wrong at all by taking alternatives from plants or so. Trust me, I would take some that are more in a general form. A herbal green tea? That’s a better idea. The rule is simple. Know what you are consuming. Get a physician advice before you take anything. Even vitamins are great. But do get an advice from an expert on what particular vitamin one needs. 

I love food but food does not love me. Catchy phrase but that’s the truth.

Seriously as a person I love food. But I’m highly sensitive to food recently. As an Indian, the spices are now slowly against me. That’s seriously weird. I guess each of us have our own spice limit. What happens is, I get weird stomach burns. That’s not too bad compared to my sensitivity to eggs and dairy. Sigh. I can’t have those in my diet or else I would be triggering a serious migraine. I got to know this by going through some allergy test. I think everyone should know what food is best for them. And by knowing such build a healthy diet on it. Forget about the people who say this, “You are young, eat while you can”. Young is where and when it all begins. Food consume may not be in a large quantity but it should be in rich nutritional value. You know the pyramid. I don’t have to remind you on that. Last but not least, Water! Lots of water.
