• Talk to your doctor about preventive care, like screening tests for diseases and vaccinations.

• Get your medical history to see what diseases or conditions run in your family.

• Make healthy food choices daily. A side salad, perhaps, instead of fries? Water instead of a soda?

• Get active! Ride a bike, go for a walk with the family, do yardwork, try a new sport.

• Shoot for seven to eight hours of sleep each night. Sleep can lower your risk of high blood pressure and diabetes.
