Bad Habits in the Morning Disturbing Health

Although usually you claim to not have much time in the morning, trust me without knowing there are small things but bad for the health you've always done when starting the day. It's five of them.

1. Checking email and online messenger immediately after waking up

Email and online messenger potentially make you panic or actually the opposite, being too busy chatting. "Bad news, job demands come out of hours to make you start the day with negative feelings. It can affect your mood all day. And if you reply or respond in a state of drowsiness, you risk making a mistake," said Susan Bartell, PsyD, psychologist specialist work-life balance.

So, if you want to open an email or other messaging services, open when you're really fresh. The person who opened the e-mail only at the time they had settled, had a smaller risk of stress, rather than opening the email and other messages at any time or at any time, according to a study of the University of British Columbia.


2. Delaying workouts

"It's a classic story but there is still a lot going on," said Jessica Matthews, an assistant professor of health and exercise science Miramar College in California. Afternoon exercise session was not necessarily true, unless you are lovers of sports or determined very strong and this is rare.

If you are reluctant to make time for exercise, find other ways to move, Jessica suggestions. Accustomed to wait for the bus at the stop near the house? Change, waiting at the stop at a greater distance away from your home. The same trick can you do when the home office. Your office is on the 15th floor? Go up the stairs to the floor three or five, just after it up the elevator.


3. Shower with warm water

A warm bath is placed in the body, but if done early in the day will make you feel relaxed and so lazy to move. "The warm water will also send signals to the central nervous system to tell your body that it's time to rest, so that the heart rate slows down and you feel sleepy again," said Jared Heathman, MD, a psychiatrist in Texas.

Shower with cold water. In addition to refreshing, also can activate the production of endorphins so you become the spirit of the move.


4. carbohydrate-laden breakfast

Carbohydrate is the kind of breakfast is the most widely and easily available. Coffee, vegetable rice cake, white bread with jam is an example. Yes, there is a small amount of vegetables and protein in the menu but not enough, remains the dominant carbohydrate. Research says, carbohydrate dominant breakfast can make you tend to eat junk food all day.

Replace your bread with wheat bread that combined low-sugar peanut butter as a source of protein. Or consumption of menus made from eggs and nuts. Why do not you try a plate of sautéed green beans (cook for 2-3 minutes with a minimum of oil or water and seasonings) plus one or two slices of hard-boiled egg? "Prioritizing protein as a source of energy and fibre that will keep you full longer for breakfast," said Men's Health nutrition advisor, Alan Aragon.


 5. Brushing your teeth after meals

Brushing your teeth after meals, especially after drinking coffee or eating fruit, will drive the sugar left in the mouth to the surface of the tooth, so the risk of cavities increases, according to Michael Tischler, DDS, owner of the clinic dentist Tischler Dental in Woodstock, New York.

Brush your teeth before meals or 30-60 minutes after eating or drinking something acidic and contain sugar. A study says, people are brushing their teeth 30-60 minutes after drinking coffee or eating sugary foods, lower risk for tooth enamel loss than brushing your teeth 20 minutes after eating the same food or drink.
