Now you don’t think that it’s difficult to reach this goal. I’ll remind you, there are several simple steps, according to USDA:
- Eat whole grains.
- Vary your superfoods–veggies. Eat them fresh. Light steaming is the best way to cook vegetables and is preferable to boiling as the food loses no minerals at all, and the process does less damage to the food’s fragile vitamins and enzymes. Do you know that we lose about 25 per cent of the vitamin C in vegetables through boiling food–even for only a few minutes?
- Focus on sweet superfood–fruits.
- Get your calcium-rich foods: milk, yogurt, kefir and cheese.
- Go lean with protein by eating meat and beans.
- Choose you fats carefully. Use olive oil when you prepare your meals.
- Don’t forget about your physical activities: walking or jogging, swimming and playing baseball or soccer, and exercising.
Knowledge is power, don’t you know that? So, if you want to to build a healthier you and keep it this way, follow up these recommendations. Good luck to you on the road to good health!
