by Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, NaturalNews Editor
A columnist offers 50 secrets to staying fit and healthy, including: Carry a bottle of water with you and drink from it often, start your day with a balanced breakfast, make time for relaxation, get plenty of sleep, create an exercise schedule and recognize that your time on Earth is limited so you should use it wisely.
