Eat Fish Once a Week
Eating one serving of fish per week can halve your risk of a sudden fatal heart attack. The secret ingredient in fish is omega-3 fatty acids. Salmon is especially high in them.

Dry-Brush Your Teeth
It cuts tartar by 60 percent and also reduces the risk of bleeding gums by half. Use a dry, soft brush to scrub the insides of your top and bottom teeth, then buff the outer surfaces. Rinse and brush briefly with toothpaste.

Never Skip Breakfast
A survey of more than 2,000 people who lost an average of 67 pounds and kept the weight off for more than 5 years found that 78 percent ate breakfast 7 days a week.

Crunch Away Back Pain
Seventy-five percent of all lower-back problems can be prevented by building your abdominal muscles. Aim for a dozen crunches every day.

Order Thin-Crust Pizza
It has a third fewer calories than thick-crust pizza. Blot the cheese with a napkin to cut even more fat.

Skip that Second Cup
The caffeine in 2 cups of coffee adds 16 beats per minute to your heart rate.

Exercise Depression Away
Exercising for 40 minutes can reduce stress. In fact, studies show that working out on a regular basis can be as effective as taking antidepressants like Prozac.

Fall Asleep With Cherries
Cherries and cherry juice are concentrated sources of melatonin, a popular over-the-counter sleep aid.

Take Vitamin E and Aspirin Daily
Researchers have found that this antioxidant-and-blood-thinner combination can reduce arterial plaque by 80 percent. The benefit of the two treatments together is so great that it may help prevent atherosclerosis even if you can't lower your cholesterol levels.
