Many of these habits could be damaging your health without you realizing it

#10 popcorn

![historia-de-las-palomitas-de-maíz.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcpY6BKbYokHnMf52WvF2hGSP8fs1i7zrFJLcW76WqTas/historia-de-las-palomitas-de-ma%C3%ADz.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcpY6BKbYokHnMf52WvF2hGSP8fs1i7zrFJLcW76WqTas/historia-de-las-palomitas-de-ma%C3%ADz.jpg) Popcorn may be the favorite for many, and the best part is that we can prepare them in our homes at the push of a button in the microwave, but if we do this regularly we could be putting our health at risk ![microondas.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRwPqLNe5js6qgvs9VhCVVKWd2frZak8CQVg9VRcqW5Zg/microondas.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmRwPqLNe5js6qgvs9VhCVVKWd2frZak8CQVg9VRcqW5Zg/microondas.jpg) When popcorn is cooked, a toxic gas is released to the lungs and this is due in large part to the fact that they have been treated with various chemicals, but this does not end here it turns out that the packaging where the corn grains are stored also contains a carcinogenic chemical that prevents the envelope from absorbing the fat This can cause damage to your liver and kidney http://i.tuenlinea.com/dam/noticias/17/06/24/beneficios_de_comer_palomitas_1.gif.imgo.gif [Source](http://i.tuenlinea.com/dam/noticias/17/06/24/beneficios_de_comer_palomitas_1.gif.imgo.gif) But of course this does not mean that we should stop consuming popcorn since there are other ways to do it, buying organic corn grains and making homemade popcorn, These are healthier and do not contain unnecessary chemicals

#9 the bad habit of biting your nails

![noticia-unas_0.png](https://steemitimages.com/DQmPffXiJuLmxb9T2LRFuH1WSKpWpFQNR53QKJPM6vRfXii/noticia-unas_0.png) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmPffXiJuLmxb9T2LRFuH1WSKpWpFQNR53QKJPM6vRfXii/noticia-unas_0.png) This is a habit that may seem disgusting or annoying to many people, but there is a good excuse to stop doing it let me inform you that it can also be dangerous, since our nails harbor millions of bacteria like the E-Coli and Salmonella ![1392451120E._coli_and_Salmonella.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmVLAEpVCzE1YkSx8UhsSMCwvEEMQSNv2byL8DNcJ5tZsT/1392451120E._coli_and_Salmonella.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmVLAEpVCzE1YkSx8UhsSMCwvEEMQSNv2byL8DNcJ5tZsT/1392451120E._coli_and_Salmonella.jpg) When you bite them all those bacteria end up inside your mouth and in the rest of your body if you constantly get sick of the stomach and can not find an explanation, avoid biting your nails and washing your hands regularly, not only good for your health but also for your image

#8 Watch television while eating food

![eattttv.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcBaKYf3P71tpfUVZyJTEXBbZyR5XBiEf7GHwxtSP1bG3/eattttv.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcBaKYf3P71tpfUVZyJTEXBbZyR5XBiEf7GHwxtSP1bG3/eattttv.jpg) There are families who watch television while they eat Kids love watching cartoons while they eat, some other people eat in front of the computer (I include myself), to take advantage of time and keep working ![4-razones-para-no-ver-television-mientras-cenas-en-familia-1.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmfV7oNtQT1qyK8tTxxYSNmZ9LFqJjsv8p8jnEzpcR742p/4-razones-para-no-ver-television-mientras-cenas-en-familia-1.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcT2gKwnmco7QWqAxRXyivzaif5b9Hr7mpCRjWn4UwG5A/4-razones-para-no-ver-television-mientras-cenas-en-familia-1.jpg) But eating with distractions is a dangerous habit, you see, when we watch television our brain is so focused on it that it forgets to tell us when it is satisfied this often causes us to continue eating nonstop, even when we are no longer hungry, also makes us unconsciously crave food with more sugar and fat So if we do this often we probably consume more calories than we need, for this reason it is preferable to eat sitting at the table focused on what we are eating

#7 wiping the inside of the ears with swabs

![ac63beef-c835-43ca-836e-a89db2405cfd.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmTpwEXZTqpnY7zvkbPCq4efKBQo92F3kpg7K5MCABeeAw/ac63beef-c835-43ca-836e-a89db2405cfd.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmTpwEXZTqpnY7zvkbPCq4efKBQo92F3kpg7K5MCABeeAw/ac63beef-c835-43ca-836e-a89db2405cfd.jpg) This is a hyssop also known as cotonete most people use it to wipe the wax off their ears when in reality this is not their purpose, The swabs were designed to collect samples in laboratories and should not be used to remove the match inside the ears ![depositphotos_129856116-stock-photo-female-forensic-technician-collecting-biological.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmNWufsPDurSHpbjAdXQiVx7CM1W9eecb5ABCm5mLkPTLP/depositphotos_129856116-stock-photo-female-forensic-technician-collecting-biological.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmNWufsPDurSHpbjAdXQiVx7CM1W9eecb5ABCm5mLkPTLP/depositphotos_129856116-stock-photo-female-forensic-technician-collecting-biological.jpg) Ear wax not only prevents dust and dirt from reaching the eardrum They also have anti-bacterial advantages and lubricants since once the wax dries up any movement of your jaw helps move the old wax out of your ear basically your ears are cleaned alone ![oido.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcKeBzN3ndiMKW1DDiPCiMr2h62VhV23VNpWeK5oT9c63/oido.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcKeBzN3ndiMKW1DDiPCiMr2h62VhV23VNpWeK5oT9c63/oido.jpg) The only thing that is achieved by using a swab is to push most of the wax to places that the ear is not able to clean by itself

#6 Use the phone while walking the streets

![caminar-distraido.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmewZjY6Wb6i8fdLrFvCretF2k6YqXviDjhN5uTwJ4mHmN/caminar-distraido.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmewZjY6Wb6i8fdLrFvCretF2k6YqXviDjhN5uTwJ4mHmN/caminar-distraido.jpg) We know that driving and using the telephone is quite dangerous, but what many do not know is that walking and using the phone is the same or even more dangerous, It is increasingly common to see accidents of people stumbling, falling, crashing or even being run over http://www.atraccion360.com/media/aa/anigif_enhanced-16756-1406236781-14.gif [Source](http://www.atraccion360.com/media/aa/anigif_enhanced-16756-1406236781-14.gif) And all this because they were maybe sending messages, playing and not paying attention where they walk Statistically you are 60% more likely to be injured if you use a cell phone while walking, But if you really need to use it, it is better to stop for a moment and once you have sent your message or whatever you have to do, save it and continue walking

#5 Drinking too much water

![pareja-bebe-agua.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmV8yZFmCrQUZ67XraR5FQP3RXMRfFBhJgeeUdCvKoZjYE/pareja-bebe-agua.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmV8yZFmCrQUZ67XraR5FQP3RXMRfFBhJgeeUdCvKoZjYE/pareja-bebe-agua.jpg) Some say you should drink 2.5 liters of water a day, others claim that it is necessary to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day, But who is right? Your body will be the one to tell you how much water you need to drink, If you need it, it will let you know, giving you a feeling of thirst https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e5/df/b2/e5dfb201f739b86189809eaf05805408.gif [Source](https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e5/df/b2/e5dfb201f739b86189809eaf05805408.gif) Many people believe that they should drink at least 2 liters of water a day, But this is not entirely true, the amount of water your body needs varies according to your weight, and the physical activity you do, so not every day you should drink the same amount of water Although it seems to be a lie, drinking too much water is also dangerous, being able to trigger a hyper-hydration also known as water intoxication which can cause kidney problems

#4 Snoring at bedtime

![fotonoticia_20160206093538_1280.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmfWfCX6mYtqgWU1cekvcgmm7iR3FwbBUaetgkfyfRrvPW/fotonoticia_20160206093538_1280.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmfWfCX6mYtqgWU1cekvcgmm7iR3FwbBUaetgkfyfRrvPW/fotonoticia_20160206093538_1280.jpg) When we snore we think that the only ones who suffer are the ones who do not listen to us at night, just like people who do not let your snoring sleep could also be affecting your own health https://www.ayojon.mx/galeria/2017/05/31433.gif [Source](https://www.ayojon.mx/galeria/2017/05/31433.gif) If your snoring is long and slow the most advisable is to visit the doctor and find out the reason since you could be suffering from sleep apnea, a disorder that prevents you from breathing properly while you sleep, this can increase the risk of heart disease and greatly decrease the quality and life expectancy

#3 Stop having breakfast

![Desayunos-depurativos.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZUWj9gndb79urMXVsD5Ys25bw17G827GfFGEwEFJ7oib/Desayunos-depurativos.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZUWj9gndb79urMXVsD5Ys25bw17G827GfFGEwEFJ7oib/Desayunos-depurativos.jpg) There are many people who decide not to eat breakfast when they get up, either by not being hungry, for lack of time or maybe because they simply do not feel like Cardiologists say that people who eat breakfast from little to nothing have 68% more to develop cardiovascular diseases, cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity, so for more lazy we have when waking we try not to skip breakfast

#2 little oral hygiene

![d24c3c38a88ed6c15b3afba64b56e694_XL.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZtbbFJcNKXMBjQP6Wz7qGsQRcvMmWEoYkhcHk1kt7HYb/d24c3c38a88ed6c15b3afba64b56e694_XL.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZtbbFJcNKXMBjQP6Wz7qGsQRcvMmWEoYkhcHk1kt7HYb/d24c3c38a88ed6c15b3afba64b56e694_XL.jpg) Many of us believe that it is enough to brush our teeth 3 times a day, what many of us forget is that it's just as important to floss it is difficult to reach the plate and the remains of food that hide inside the lines of the gums and the teeth only with the sepillo https://images.askmen.com/news/sports/_1470164454.gif [Source](https://images.askmen.com/news/sports/_1470164454.gif) Flossing removes plaque and food debris between teeth and gums but it also helps control bad breath,

#1 excess soft drinks and soft drinks

![gordotomandosodarefrescoobeso660x550-1200x800.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcMufHjHNDa1hRVCAavPd7jvdBen7TS9ypyoRFFH2jMJw/gordotomandosodarefrescoobeso660x550-1200x800.jpg) [Source](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcMufHjHNDa1hRVCAavPd7jvdBen7TS9ypyoRFFH2jMJw/gordotomandosodarefrescoobeso660x550-1200x800.jpg) We all know how harmful sodas and sodas are to our body, but many of us decided to ignore them, and continue to consume them without measures But the excessive consumption of this type of drinks is linked to excess weight, bad dental health, and type 2 diabetes among other things, the amount of refined sugar in soft drinks is well above what is recommended by the World Health Organization The sugar you eat daily should not exceed 10% of the total calories consumed per day, this equals 50 mg or 10 teaspoons of sugar a day, and the funny thing is that a single 600ml soft drink has more than 60 mg, Now imagine how much sugar people drink more than 3 drinks a day

With this I conclude my post a greeting and I hope you liked it
