No, You don't have to be sick

Sure different sicknesses might run in your family, but you can put a stop to them now! I don't think that people realize that living a healthy life and feeling awesome is so much better than having a piece of dessert. Don't agree with me? Well, let me give you some reasons to say that I am right.
You say that you want to live a long life, but how do you plan on doing that? Do you think that sitting around all day will help? Do you think that cooking up your tasty trans fat, sugary meal will help that? I don't think so, actually I know that it won't help it at all. The key to living a happy, healthy life is by enjoying it and by living it to the fullest. Its okay to have a small treat every once in a while, but when you realize how much better you feel without it, you won't even have a desire for it.
Lets talk about how to live the life you have always wanted.

1. Reduce Stress
You ask, "How in the world do I do that, did you see my To Do list today!?!?" Well, you can choose to freak out and have a panic attack or you can choose to take a deep breath, focus on what you need to get done, and get it done without ruining your day and the day of everyone around you.

2. Exercise

Exercise makes you feel good, reduces stress and disease, and makes you look awesome. Being active in your everyday life, even by just walking somewhere instead of driving can make a big difference.

3. Eat Healthy.
I am talking about eating to fuel your body. You wouldn't put the wrong kind of fuel in your car, so why put the wrong fuel in your body? Your body needs nutrients. To reduce and fight off disease, eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Whole grains, lean meat, low fat dairy, and healthy fats like nuts, seeds, and olive oil all help to fuel your body. Don't want cancer? Avoid sugar, there is actually a large volume of scientific evidence available which shows the link between sugar and increased cancer risk. A study conducted by Harvard Medical School found that people who ate the most foods with high glycemic load – the glycemic index, or GI, of a food gives an idea of how quickly sugar (more specifically, glucose) levels in the blood rise after eating it – had almost three times the risk of getting cancer in the future, compared with those who ate lesser amounts of such foods.

The most important tip in living a healthy life is by enjoying it. Don't live your life in fear of disease but give your body what it needs to fight it off.

P.S. Remember...

Reducing Stress + Exercise + Healthy Eating = a long happy life
