Healthy food makes you feel good.


 

When you lack good health, everything else in life suffers. It’s harder to concentrate and study. Illness can cause you to fall behind in coursework. Stress can make you feel overwhelmed. If you want to do well in all areas of your life, you must make your health a priority.

The Social Progress Index measures the social performance of 169 countries using 60 well-being metrics. In its 2022 report, the United States ranked 44th in the world on nutrition and basic medical care and 33rd on health and wellness. These are not encouraging numbers, and they underscore the importance of focusing on health and wellness.

This doesn’t mean you need an expensive gym membership or a complicated diet plan to improve your health, though. You can get solid health and wellness tips from authoritative blogs. The following are some of the top wellness blogs in areas of fitness, nutrition, and mental health.
