2. Get fresh air and sunlight
Spending time outdoors can be a game-changer. Akshay encourages getting “fresh air and sunlight”, as both play a crucial role in overall well-being. Oxygen, vitamin D, and a positive mindset set the foundation for a healthy lifestyle.
3. Avoid processed foods
Akshay swears by natural, home-cooked meals and warns against consuming processed foods and artificial supplements. His advice? “Trust the good old desi ghee” instead of refined oils and heavily processed foods.
4. Exercise regularly
A strong advocate for movement, Akshay incorporates martial arts, yoga, and functional training into his routine. He stresses, “And most importantly… Move, move, move. Kuchh bhi type ka workout karo par karo toh sahi. Regular exercise will change your life. Trust me on this and get moving.” Regular physical activity is key to transforming one’s health.
