Going for the good old fruits and veges and a supplement might be the ticket.
Also stress. Avoid it where ever possible. I am big on self preservation now and I don't take on others problems and try to help them any more. It's very man (woman) for herself nowadays and don't sweat the small stuff. It sounds easy but its not. <3
