More Water and Exercise Lead to a Healthy Life

Vangie finds that many of her friends are not careful about what they eat. Their diet is mainly made up of fast food, such as hamburger and deep-fried chicken, and they take extreme measures to lose weight, sometimes even following some weird diet plans. Vangie wonders whether these weight-losing measures are really effective.

The best way to stay healthy, Vangie says, is to get enough sleep, drink plenty of water and exercise regularly. “Nothing makes you look better than a good night’s sleep.” she says. “Water may help speed up metabolism and keep your skin moist.” Vangie jogs for an hour every night and attends dance sessions regularly. She seldom needs to keep a strict diet.
