What we have been taught for years is to have breakfast, lunch and dinner. What is starting to become common knowledge is to have smaller portions more frequently during the day. By doing this, it helps to keep your blood sugar levels stable over the course of the day. By keeping your blood sugar levels stable throughout the day it helps to increase energy, and also aids in burning unnecessary fat. Even though you are having many small meals throughout the day, remember to keep them balanced with carbohydrates, proteins and essential fats.
It doesn’t take much to live a healthy lifestyle, just better choices on a daily basis. We all have people that care about us, take the time to show them that you care about yourself as well.
Fresh Is Best
Raw and fresh fruits and vegetables have live food enzymes. Enzymes are the life force of the food. They unlock nutrients and assist in the digestion and absorption of foods. The simplest way to understand this is to notice what happens to a piece of fruit as it ripens. Once it is overripe the food enzymes go to work to “break it down” as it decomposes. Foods with enzymes aid in their own digestion within the body, thereby improving absorption of nutrients and elimination. Simply put, this is less stress on your body as it has to produce less enzymes for the process of digestion and promotes intestinal health.
Preparation
Planning and preparation is a big key to building those healthy habits. Take a look at how you want your life to look in one week, one month and one year. Plan the actions which will get you to the goals that you have picked out for yourself. Planning for meals will ensure that you are putting the proper foods into your body. Plan time to go to the gym or even go for a walk. If you don’t set an exact time to work out it becomes very easy to put it off till later and even just not go at all. The old saying ‘Tomorrow never comes’
You can incorporate this preparation and planning into any aspect of your life. By doing this you will find that you have much more free time and less stress.
Remember to have what you have never had before, you must be prepared to do what you have never done before!!!
