Aim for 30 different plants a week from the super six: whole grains (think: quinoa, rolled oats, and sourdough bread), nuts and seeds (walnuts, pistachios, and pecans), vegetables, fruits, legumes (think: beans), and herbs and spices (cumin, cinnamon, and paprika).

Experts say the ‘diversity #diet’ of eating 30 plants a week could boost your #guthealth

The more variety of plants you eat, the better.

Plant-based foods are rich in phytochemicals, fibre, antioxidants with anti-inflammatory properties.

Beyond 150 min per week of moderate activity- only marginal benefits in reduced risk of disease or early death.

What counts as moderate-intensity physical activity?

Brisk walk
Dance
Ride bike
Play tennis
Hike

Better yet push, pull or lift something heavy.

Some #physicalactivity is better than none.

75 min per week of moderate-intensity activity = 23% lower risk of early death.

Out of 30 million participants < 10% did more than 300 min per week.

I never had a cup of coffee until I hit 30.

Now I drink daily because coffee is linked to:
Longer life expectancy
Less risk of type-2 diabetes
Less cognitive decline
Reduced risk of Alzheimer's & Parkinson's

Caffeine tolerance differs, but most benefits start at 2-3 cups/day.
