3 Health Tips That Will Change Your Life

By AJ Camp

Healthy living is necessary for longevity because it can help fend off diseases. Below, find 3 health tips that will change your life for the better and they do not even include huge lifestyle changes. Basically, anyone can, and should, follow the valuable information provided.

1. Up the Antioxidants

Feeling a little sluggish? Antioxidant rich foods may help that. Antioxidants such as berries, green tea, and even dark chocolate help one feel better. Here is a list of good antioxidant rich foods:

Dried fruits rich in antioxidants:
* Pears
* Apples
* Dates
* Figs,
* Raisins
* Peaches
* Prunes

The best fresh fruits rich in antioxidants:
* Cranberries
* Blueberries
* Blackberries
* Raspberries
* Strawberries
* Blackcurrants
* Plums
* Cherries
* Apples
* All other deeply pigmented fruits

Vegetables rich in antioxidants:
* Artichokes
* Asparagus
* Avocados
* Beetroot
* Broccoli
* Spinach
* Tomatoes (increased levels when cooked)

Legumes:
* Small Red Beans
* Red kidney bean
* Pinto bean
* Black beans

Nuts:
* Pecans

2. Get Moving

Change your life with exercise. Be sure to find something you love to do and do it often. Just get off the couch. Exercise increases oxygen levels in the body, making you feel better and healthier. This will help you to better focus and will have a positive impact on your skin, too.

Exercise also helps increase muscle and decrease fat, so you will look better and fit in your clothes better. This can lead to better self confidence. Get your exercise whenever you can: walk or cycle rather than drive; take the stairs instead of the elevator; do some push ups while warming up dinner in the microwave; do some leg lifts while watching TV; etc.

3. Drink More Water

Drinking more than 8 glasses of water a day helps flush out the toxins in the body, leaving you with clearer skin and a clearer mind, as well. Ice cold water also helps burn calories and wakes your system up when you just wake up or are in an afternoon slump. It is a great boost with zero calories. Water helps regulate the body and decreases bloating and swelling. Try drinking more water early on in the day to avoid having to wake up to go to the bathroom at night.

While healthy eating and an increased intake of foods rich in antioxidants is a step in the right direction, people must understand that cooking methods will alter the foods and their antioxidant content. The more vegetables are cooked, the less the antioxidant, except for tomatoes where the reverse occurs.

3 Reasons Why You Should Attend MICE 101

5 Top Reasons Why MICE Industry should be supported by the government

event management in the Philippines

Meetings, Incentive, Conventions, and Exhibition (MICE) Industry is a big industry outside of the country. In fact, in Australia it is bigger than other industries like mining. It only proves that tourism has a big potential in stirring up the economy. I guess there is no argument to this conclusion. The problem is doing the necessary actions to really make Tourism, and MICE as part of it, reach its potential.

Here are the top 5 reasons why MICE Industry must be bolstered by the government:

1. MICE has a multiplier effect

An average MICE attendees will spend 6x compared to a typical tourist. So, if for example, a backpacker tourist spends $100, our MICE tourist will spend $600 during his stay. This is a huge contribution that our government officials must realize.

2. MICE is more about Business and Trade

A company or an association that gather for a meeting in a particular country always have attending members that will look for business opportunities. In fact, it is not rocket science but a simple observation because International attendees in a convention and exhibition have higher purchasing capacity as compared to FIT (Free Independent Traveler) tourists.

Of course there are exceptions to the rules, if we are to discuss those who are into the leisure and high end travel but that is another point for discussion. In general, MICE has higher value that FIT.

This is the reason that JAPAN has a promotional display ad that I saw in TTG that has a statement that goes like this” Thank You Very Much for Putting MICE in Japan”

International Congress & Convention Association (ICCA) statistics show, that a

Total of 400,000 conferences and exhibitions are held worldwide every year at the total outlay of US$280 billion. The Global Association of the Exhibition Industry (UFI) points out that as annual MICE industry output value has already reached US$1.16 trillion (including US$400 billion for conferences and US$760 billion for exhibitions), MICE could be counted on to bring enormous economic benefit to the countries and cities that host them. [Department of Investment Services, Ministry of Economic Affairs, Taiwan].

3. MICE is a platform for Transfer of Knowledge and Technology

The country that is able to secure an International Convention or Exhibition is indeed lucky. It will not only benefit in terms of economic value but the knowledge and technology transfer that International speakers, participants or exhibitors bring is immense.

I remember a story by one of my trainer in Singapore where I took up a MICE Master class; she said she has a client doctor who spends a lot of money in order to win a particular medical event. She asks why go for it considering the financial risks. The doctor just smiled and told her that financial risks is nothing compared to the knowledge and technology transfer that can be gained by the local medical practitioners in the country in that particular field.

4. MICE benefits multiple industry suppliers

A conference or exhibition that is International in nature involves Hotels, Airplanes, Buses, Travel and Tour Operators, Production Houses, Exhibition Venues, Catering, Corporate Giveaways, Entertainment, Freight Forwarders, Booth Suppliers and Designers and the lists goes on.

This is how MICE create a snowball effect to the economy and industry related to it. In this industry the players compete but collaborate in different projects. In MICE, an entity cannot do it alone and needs a lot partners in order to make a MICE event a success.

5. MICE provides positive Image to the country

Every bid won by a local organizer or association makes me proud because I know it will have a positive effect that will redound to our country.

I know that if a MICE event is staged well the international visitors that participated will tell their experiences to their countrymen and the cycle starts all over. Another MICE event will again be staged in the country, all because of the past successes fellow local organizers or associations performed.

This is a simple case of word-of-mouth marketing or creating a purple cow in the midst of all the white cows.

A country that has a positive international image will attract investors and a lot of opportunities that will be felt by the people that comprise that particular country. It is also a source of pride for the people of that country.

One example, maybe ambitious, what will you feel if we won the bid for the Olympics?

I hear gasps and revelries and emotions that you can only see from a person that won a lotto draw. Precisely, that is the feeling that a won MICE bid gives to the country and the people that loves the country.

MICE have all the good reasons that our country and government must realize and pursue relentlessly.
