What Doctors Wish You'd Do on Yahoo! Health

You've heard it before: Eat a healthy diet, exercise and don't smoke, and you'll add years to your life. In fact, one study found that more than half of all deaths from chronic diseases among women could be avoided by following these commonsense strategies. But there's more to good health than just these basic tenets. "There are many surprisingly simple things you can do to improve your health," says Michael Roizen, MD, chief wellness officer at the Cleveland Clinic. "It's up to you to make smart choices on a daily basis." Doctors give their best advice for keeping you in the pink.
