This week The Daily Mail is publishing a number of articles on heath every day, below are two examples.

Very interesting reading. My life style change four years ago has some of what written here!

Every year, about 150,000 people in Britain fall victim to a stroke

Switching to a health plant-based diet can lessen the risk of a stroke

Studies show that eating more fibre may also help to ward off strokes

High blood pressure? Try a glass of orange juice: Citrus could reduce the risk of a stroke

All I can say is for healthy life, you need regular exercise, food and drink intake control. Watch out for free sugar and hidden sugar
