“Don’t stick objects in places you shouldn’t and/or need help getting removed from.”
When it comes to our health, it’s hard to know what’s best practice.
And it’s even harder to put healthy habits INTO practice especially during summer.

Here are some of the top responses:
1.
“Unhealthy things the general public tend to underestimate: Sleep deprivation.

Don’t do meth.
Those are my three in no particular order.”
“Anal to vaginal.

“Sugar is not your friend.
Make those things a treat, not a daily habit.”

“Not necessarily something most people don’t do, but wear your seatbelt!
It’s right there!
It doesn’t hurt; it takes five seconds to put on and it can back up your life.

“Hypertension(high blood pressure) is the silent killer.
It plays the long game and will mess you up later on.

Get it under control and keep it under control.
Check it at home, the drug store, or the doctor’s.”
I make note of that stuff in the chart, so I’ll remember.”

“While not a doctor or nurse, I was NCOIC of infection control.
Thumbs, top of the hands, all if it.

This prevents cross contamination.
Squirting Purell doesn’t cut it.
That ‘kills 99.99%’ is only in sterile lab conditions.”

“Exercise will improve your health.
Doesn’t matter how much you do, as long as it is more than zero.
Even 20 minutes of walking will make you feel better long term than doing nothing.”

“TAKE YOUR MEDICINE IF IT IS PRESCRIBED TO YOU.
Just don’t do it.

It’s unbelievable to me that this is still an issue.”
“Sleep enough, eat well.
Two basic things that definitely most people don’t follow.”

“Seeing family and friends often.
Relationships are so important for mental health and is sometimes overlooked when life gets busy and stressful.”
“Don’t stick objects in places you shouldn’t and/or need help getting removed from.”
