How to start healthy eating - by @dcrypto

in #health7 years ago

Clean eating is a requisite habit which everyone needs to adopt for healthy living. Since a majority of people have become very busy with the professional and personal situations, they have almost forgotten the importance of healthy eating. Clean eating is as important as living life as far as I am concerned. No matter how busy you are, you should be following a good diet plan with healthy eating.

Healthy eating is definitely linked to your overall health. It is associated with decreasing inflammation and it’s linked to lower acidity and alkalize your body, which helps to protect your body from ageing. Eating healthy is also associated with insulin control and fat storage, which leads to overweight and many decease.

Eat more fats, include unsaturated fats such as monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats into your diet while reducing or eliminating saturated fats such as Trans fats.

You have to have a significant amount of fats on daily basis in order to maintain nutrient absorption, brain development, hormone production etc. You can get a large number of monounsaturated fats from natural resources like avocado. Try to learn what fats are and inculcate good fats into your diet. You can get more unsaturated fats from flaxseed oil, and walnuts.

Replace refined foods with unrefined. Add more natural foods into your diets such as brown and legumes and avoid refined items like sugar.

Refined sugars are more commonly used and they are included in almost every person’s calories. These sugars can be found in a lot of products you may not be knowing. So check the ingredient list and decide whether to buy it or not. Check whether it is mentioned towards bottom so that you can make sure that it is added in a very less quantity. These refined items, which have very little nutrient value, are associated with increased insulin levels and thereby making overweight, prone to cancer, etc. Some items of this section are linked to hinder nutrients absorption.

Eat more natural foods, such as fruits and vegetables. Avoid artificial flavours and sweeteners into your diet.

The most important of all is try to include a lot of fruits and vegetables in your diet. Avoid highly processed foods and artificial flavours. These are linked to increasing many deceases such as Alzheimer’s, and some kinds of cancer.

Therefore, eat healthily and allow your body to function properly. Avoid most amount of chemicals in your diet. Make use of natural foods in order to stimulate your health. This kind of eating controls stress slows ageing, increase energy levels, and spurs mental capacities,

I find working in intermittent fasting (time restricted eating) helps lower insulin levels and fights cravings

Indeed, fasting is a great diet.

I agree 100% I was introduced to clean eating via the Ketogenic way of eating last January. I have so much more energy, less swelling and lost a total of 75lbs. After eating this way your body naturally wants to fast, because you are satisfied with real food, instead of constantly hungry while eating carbage and hidden sugars. I am very happy to see people starting to show awareness of what they are putting into their bodies. Thanks for posting.

This is a great article, I have been eating with this approach in mind and have really noticed the difference in how I feel. When I was eating more processed foods I always felt tired, but now I feel so much more alert.

Hi @brightideas, this is my misson to make everyone plants based. @libby i'm the same now i'm fully plant based natural vegan now and i've always got a spring mystep with out the need for coffee or stimulates. The way I transitioned was using the power of making natural chocolates (which I rarely need to eat at all now)with healthy sweetner (did you know cacao has many powerful antioxidants and nutrients?)
Please check out my healthy chocolate recipe post here

Overall great information.
However most polyunsaturated fats are genetically modified and pro inflammatory.

Nice article , it is helpful for all. carry on by this type of healthy article.

i heard that green vegetables are very good for health.It cure many diseases and it's good for heart and Sugar patient.

most vegetables contains low glycemic index thus recommended for diabetic patient and generally green vegetables and fruits are great cos they also contain antioxidant which help eliminate free radicals in our body generally improving and keeping us away from disease.

Hi dCrypto,
What are your thoughts on only fruit in the mornings?
I remember doing that for a week - I lost 1kg per day ... had to stop because I was getting too thin!!
Great Post - Keep it up!
Cheers Man :))

Well firstly i wana drop a contribution forgive me since the question wasnt directed at me so i dont come off as rude by just poking in. taking fruits only as breakfast is recommended if you wana shed weight. fruits would prevent you from getting hungry as well as not contributing much calorie to your caloric pool obviously you were creating a caloric deficit by eating only fruits as breakfast and you got rid off some pounds as a result. you should also know that breakfast is infact the most important meal of the day.

Thanks for your contribution :))
I appreciate reading sensible content :p

I fully agree with your comments, in addition to using unrefined and healthy foods as you described, I add that for a better control of insulin and blood sugar, meals and snacks should be reduced in quantities increasing the frequency of intake. thanks for the information. Go on!

Great article with good information. It took me many years to finally realized how to eat healthy. On the internet, library and everywhere we go there are false information and confusing information. Truths are not welcome by the industry, and shareholders. They have only one objective which is to make money. Finally, I understand. To eat healthy is to eat "Plant-based Whole Food."

I find it difficult to believe that a totally plant based diet is the only way to eat healthy. The best way would be to have a variety of foods that you eat in order to get all of the nutrients that you need to stay healty.

A combination of vegetables both raw and cooked along with a variety of grains and meat would be best and leave you with fewer cravings for sweets.

I also believe that the closer to the earth your diet is the better that you are going to fèel.

By growing your own vegetables and harvesting your own meat you know what is going into the food that you are preparing and eating.

Our body is a temple; our body can also become a slaughterhouse. We are given free choice. By eating plant-based whole food, we can elevate our consciousness because our body is in alignment with the universal love and compassion, which ultimately give us the highest quality of peace and happiness. Human nature is to love. When our tummy become a tomb of dead animal, it affects our consciouness in a negative way.

A great article on healthy food :) upvoted

Great health, beautiful life!

Yup, good habit to eat more cis fats than trans fats. One thing more, we should slightly change cooking habit as well, I mean reusing oils for frying of fish, chips or chicken over and over can also increase the proportion of trans fatty acids as well as saturated fatty acids and that could also lead to cardiovascular diseases.

Healthy food allows also your brain to function properly!!!

It’s so easy on paper. I love healthy food, but sometimes carbs are just screaming my name. I wish they weren’t. I try as well as I can, but allow myself a “cheat day”. Maybe one day I won’t need one.

For people with Fybromialgy it is so important to keep a healthy stile of living including a big change in our eating patters thanks for sharing!

yes its the best choice today you select more unrefined food because we consume chemicals in refined foods so Eat organic and fresh foods. Thank You @brightideas.

Sometimes to eat organic fruits and vegetables cost a lot because not all of the areas fruits and vegetables are cheap.

Balance diet is helpful for regular life. it helps us keep us healthy . fresh and green vegetables and fruits are very helpful . we should avoid highly processed food. Your post is too much helpful... thanks for sharing .

I think that eating unprocessed plant based food is the best what we can do for our health!
