While most people try to do something about their health or wellbeing, experts from comparison site, MoneyGuru.com, suggest that by making a few small changes, you could also make your bank balance healthier.

For example, cutting down on takeaways (and those other little indulgences such as glasses of wine) and instead making a meal plan for the whole week, could help you save money too.

Other tips include ditching the expensive gym membership that you never use and instead going for walks, taking the stairs instead of the lift and watching fitness videos on YouTube (all free!).
