How is Coco Alinsug healthy?

I see a doctor each year for a physical, but even a battery of blood tests can't always pick up potential health problems. In fact, doing fast health tests on my own -- like measuring my waist, inspecting my arches, even looking under my eyelids -- can tell you volumes about my physical well-being.

I know I am too much :) but those are basic stuff that each of us should be aware of. If there is something wrong with your vision, or your pants won’t fit you anymore or you have difficulty in climbing the stairs then those are signs that you need to do some adjustments with your daily habits or whatever.

Take this simple stretch test: Bend over and reach for your toes. If you can easily grab your big toe, you're very flexible. If you can reach only your ankle or shin, add daily stretching to your workout routine. Those are easy exercises and though I don’t exercise that much anymore, I always make sure to do this as often as I can.

Last but not the least is I tend to eat healthy, I am Filipino and God knows we love those chicharones and other fatty and sumptuous stuff but I sometimes shy away from that food, take note, I said “sometimes” hahaha. But I make sure that I don’t crave that food every day, something I always did in the past.

In closing, it is important to have a healthy mind set and if possible a spiritual consciousness.
