Avoid sugary foods for they are taxing on your body.

2. Drink lots of water
Water is a vital basic requirement for good health. Health practitioners and doctors recommend at least eight glasses of water every day. Drinking enough water helps keep body cells turgid and healthy, and also facilitates the removal of toxins from the body. Instead of taking diet cola or fizzy drinks, go for the much healthier pure water. Dark urine color is one of the signs that your body needs more water.

3. Relax
Giving your body and mind time to relax is essential in that, it helps body cells rejuvenate.  Taking on simple relaxation measures such as getting enough sleep, deep breathing, fishing, yoga, and reading a book should help your brain relax.  Mental exhaustion is one of the leading causes of various health conditions such as stress, depression, and even Alzheimer's.

2. Performance - It’s a feature in shoes recommended for racing and for training, especially for people who are biomechanically efficient. They provide various types of cushioning and support.
