Risky behaviors can take years off your life and endanger those around you. For a longer, healthier life, use these tips:

  • Quit smoking or don’t start. It’s the best thing you can do for your health.
  • Wear a bicycle helmet and buckle up — always!
  • Practice safer sex every time you have sex.
  • Don’t text and drive. Using or reaching for your phone while driving triples your chances of getting in a crash.

Pledge to avoid risky behaviors this National Women’s Health Week. To learn what other steps you can take to make your health #1, visit www.womenshealth.gov/nwhw
