1. Eat live/raw foods: These are foods that have not been cooked, boiled, frozen, baked, steamed, etc. – but they are still foods in their natural state and therefore contain food enzymes that will help the digestion process.
These foods include raw fruits and vegetables, sprouted grains or seeds that will nourish the body.
2. Water: all life on this planet could not exist with it. Filtered water is the best option today. We often think of water as an extra to a healthy diet, not an essential ingredient in its own right.
One of the best benefits of drinking more water is that it can help you lose weight. Drinking is a great way to quell hunger pangs. Also, when you drink cold water (40 F or colder) you actually burn calories because the body has to raise the temperature of the water to 98.6 F.
3. Fruits like watermelons, cantaloupes, oranges, and grapefruit are mostly water, so they’re a convenient way to get more water into your diet. They also make great snacks along with grapes if you have a sweet tooth.
4. Exercise – The problem is that many of us see exercise as a chore, we may fear it or even hate it. It’s time to change that because to lose fat you need to exercise regularly.
The benefit of exercise is that you lose fat and start to build muscle, you actually burn calories more effectively, and the real advantage: the more you exercise, the more you can eat.
5. Chew slowly: chewing food until it liquefies is one of the most important recommendations. Chewed food will also easily pass through your digestion system with maximum nutrient absorption.
6. Eat your last meal between 6 and 7 at night, or at least a good couple of hours before bed. Going to sleep on a full stomach is not only uncomfortable and can keep you up at night (this has occasionally happened to me), but it’s bad for your digestive organs, heart, and liver.
7. Positive Attitude – Focus on the positive, the end results, how it will benefit you rather than the negative.
8. Serving Size – If you feel like you need more, fill it up with the veggies.
9. Good healthy foods to fill up include spinach, broccoli, kidney beans, sweet potatoes, apples, almonds, and cranberries.
10. Juice – get yourself a juicer – especially if you don’t like things like celery – juiced is delicious – a quick and extremely beneficial juice recipe: 2 stalks of celery, 4 apples, a handful of parsley, 6 carrots, a slice of lemon and a small fresh beet – absolutely delicious and extremely nutritious.
Remember that eating healthy will increase your thinking power, improve your mood, reduce stress and increase your vitality and much more. Is it worth the effort? Bet!
