There is no doubt that more and more individuals are becoming aware of the pitfalls they have been making in their pursuit of living a healthy life. Apart from the lack of discipline which most of us are guilty of , staying with a healthy diet has posed a serious challenge.
What is sometimes confusing to many of us, especially those who would have recently embarked on a change from one diet to another is the cost factor. Some believe that it could be quite expensive to stick to a diet that is rich in vegetables and fruit as compared to some readymade meals that can be inexpensive.
A report coming from Time March, 17 this year has found that it is cheaper to eat healthier meals. The number one advise is to cook more at home. This step affords you the opportunity to eat better and healthier. The American Journal of Preventative Medicine conducted a research in and around Seattle and found that people who cooked more often met the federal guideline for a healthy diet.
Some recommendations:
1.Extra-virgin oil- rich in healthy fats linked to a reduced risk of heart disease, type2 diabetes and stroke
2.Honey - natural sweetener. good sweet.
Chickpeas- great source of protein and fiber
3.Quino- protein and fiber
4. Organic eggs-good for waist slimming
