Contents
Introduction

I f we gave you three minutes to scribble down a list of the most important things in your life, we suspect youd pop in your earbuds, dial up some of your favorite music, and scratch down a few answers that look something like this:

Your friends and family

The boy or girl you like

Having cool clothes

School

Making it through your math test tomorrow

Staying zit free

Making the soccer team

Unlimited texting plans

Excellent list. No quibbles from us whatsoever. Though the specifics may change from person to person, theres no doubt that your prioritiesrelationships, performance, appearanceare the priorities of virtually everybody else your age. But if youd allow us to make a small adjustment to whatever list you came up with, wed like to squeeze in one more word:

You.

Chances are, you think that youand all the things that make up you, like your healthare about as sexy a topic as the history of the pencil, but were here to flip that notion upside its head, beat it with a stethoscope, and show you something you may never have thought of before: Your body is the vehicle you need to fulfill every wish that you have, and keeping it healthy will make it more likely that youll succeed in fulfilling those wishes. What were talking about here is more than just the bodily functions that you may normally associate with the word health. When we talk about health, we mean your brain, your relationships, your feelings, your identity, and your mood, as well as those bodily functionsall the things that make you feel the way you feel, think the way you think, and act the way you act.

Take a few minutes each day to focus on the health of your body and mind, and youll be raring to go after what you want in lifewhether its having great relationships, getting into a college you want, or following your dreams to become the next Beyonc, the next Peyton Manning, the next Chris Rock, the next J. K. Rowling, the next Steve Jobs, the next great teacher, software engineer, doctor, parent, or whatever it is you want to be.

This book is going to answer three big questions: Am I normal? Am I liked/loved? Who am I? What may surprise you is that each one of those questions (and the many answers that come with them) has everything to do with your health.

Your health is about becoming you.

Rest assured: Were not here to preach to you about the dangers of getting heart disease down the road or how to make sure that you dont need a hip replacement when youre a grandparent. Were here to talk to you about your body, your issues, and your questionsthe stuff that concerns you today. The great side effect, of course, is that taking control of your body now will give you the foundation for leading a long and healthy life.

To help us understand your most burning questions, we got intel from Health-Corps a national organization modeled on the Peace Corps that sends recent college grads into high schools around the country to help teens realize how fascinating their bodies are. Health-Corps mentors teach adolescents not only how to improve their bodies through healthy eating habits and exercise but also how to develop the mental skills and strategies they need to navigate day-to-day challenges as well as prepare for the future. The aim of this book is to provide you with all the information you need to thrive, to grow, to splash around in the pool of life and have one heckuva great time.

So what are we going to talk about? You mean, besides guys, girls, and sex? Well also cover the questions that you most want answered:

Picture 5 How to get more sleep and have more energy

Picture 6 How to improve your memory

Picture 7 How to improve the appearance and health of your skin

Picture 8 How to figure out whether youre in loveand how to maintain great relationships, romantic and otherwise
