3. Get Vitamin D

In the US, 39% of the population has issues with vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to multiple sclerosis, heart disease, and diabetes. Dr. Chopra said that vitamin D can strengthen the immune system and various body functions. In addition, it is convenient and inexpensive--it only costs $30 a year to nourish a
human body.

4. Eat Nuts

Eating nuts is very good for the human body; nuts can lower the incidence of pancreatic cancer, stroke, cardiovascular disease, and sudden death. Only a small amount of nuts will be required for the human body, and meanwhile, nuts can provide protein, ω-3 fatty acids, vitamin B, E, selenium, and a variety of minerals. The only problem about eating nuts is its high sodium content and calorie. Overeating nuts will result in excessive
salt in the body.

5. Meditate

Meditation is found in ancient cultures around the world. This ancient natural therapy has finally gained scientific respect. Its most obvious benefit is to help the body combat stress. Dr. Chopra said that meditation has a positive impact on human health, since stress is the root cause of many health issues.
