Simple Things You Can Do to Save Your Life
The following list was compiled
by the UCLA School of Public Health as simple, but effective things that
anyone can do to live a healthier, longer life. Many of them are self-evident,
others will require a bit of explaination and links within this site. But
are included here for starters.
