Nowadays, having a healthy lifestyle is pretty trendy and it is actually a great and positive thing to set as a goal. A balanced diet, physical activity, good sleep – all of these make us strong, healthy, and happy. But very often false stereotypes, that seem to be true, appear on the wave of a trend and we have to be careful because believing these can harm us. Check out the following list and tomorrow you will probably decide to get rid of that uncomfortable “ergonomic” chair or diversify your diet with dishes prepared in a multi-cooker.

We  have investigated a list of these stereotypes and will fill you in on the reality so you can start your true pursuit of self-perfection. At the end of the article, there is also a bonus that will tell you the best time to take a shower.

The instructions for using this type of furniture are also very specific when it comes to sitting positions and postures.

The trial period for an ergonomic chair should be very long, thoughtful, and attentive. If you don’t have an opportunity to check and test this expensive purchase over time, then it’s better to skip it.

3. Our body needs regular cleansing.

10 Common Stereotypes About a Healthy Lifestyle That Are Actually Harmful

We are not talking about cases where special diets and enemas are prescribed by a doctor – that’s a different situation. It’s when you do these things without consulting a doctor first that can cause some issues.
