When you're one of the experts on The Doctors, you give and get a deluge of health advice every day. These tips the docs themselves follow, daily ...

Bolster immunity

I use one or two squirts of saline nasal spray every morning and night; it immediately moisturizes nasal passages and washes away congestion, allergens, and other irritants. Moist nasal membranes also act as an extraprotective barrier when a virus tries to invade. - Travis Stork, MD

Drop and give 100

A hundred push-ups! It sound like a lot, but I break it up into 20 reps 5 times a day. If you're not used to push-ups, do them on your knees, or start with 2, 3, or 5 and add one each week. - Jim Sears, MD

Calm your mind

I begin and end each day with a gratitude list and wind down with a guided meditation. I search YouTube and select whatever my need is that day: relaxation, love, or health. Changed my life! I wake up happy and go to sleep with a quiet mind and calm stomach. - Jennifer Berman, MD

Drink lemon-aid

I start every morning with a glass of cool water with freshly squeezed lemon. It hydrates, gives me a dose of vitamin C, boosts the immune system, and has fat-burning benefits. And when skin is hydrated, fine lines and wrinkles are less obvious. You look better; you feel better. - Andrew P. Ordon, MD

Trick a sweet tooth

I have a sweet tooth, so I created a healthy daily dessert:
Take a slice of toasted whole grain bread, slather it with 1 Tbsp of almond butter, and top with sliced banana, blackberries, a drizzle of melted dark chocolate, and ground flaxseed. It satisfies cravings while providing protein, omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, potassium, and tons of antioxidants. - Rachael Ross, MD

Make an oil change

I noticed a huge improvement in my skin when I started exfoliating nightly, then applying either a retinol cream or coconut oil as a moisturizer. Exfoliating allows the next product to penetrate deeply, and alternating the powerful anti-ager retinol with natural coconut oil is like a one-two punch for skin. - Jennifer Ashton, MD
