The Power Of Sleep

Sleep is perhaps one of the most underrated aspects of keeping healthy and feeling great. In our fast paced society people are sleeping less and less. People are losing touch of there body’s natural cycles and do not understand that a solid sleeping habit will increase vitality. Our ancestors from 50 thousand years ago slept on average 8-10 hours, going to bed well before midnight and waking at the crack of dawn to start off hunting. More recently in 1910 people slept on average 9 hours per night. Alarmingly in 2005 the average amount of sleep was a mere 7 hours, which can be attributed to the pace of life and items such as television and computers keeping us up later then ever before.

Enjoy A Healthy Cruise Vacation - Top Ways

Top Ways to Enjoy a Healthy Cruise Vacation

Going on a cruise, or any vacation for that matter? Afraid you’ll gain weight? Scared you’ll stray from your nutrition goals? Want to reduce the chances of getting sick?

SANITATION

While boarding a cruise ship, you will likely be given the “option” to sanitize your hands. Some cruise lines require you to sanitize your hands when:

1. Re-boarding
2. Entering buffets
3. Entering dining rooms

See the pattern? One of the best ways to minimize your chance of on-board illness is simply to wash your hands. Just do it! And do it often.
