eat healthy food #2

~ok so now let us continue what we had left last week~

   
    4)Make most of your meals consist of fruit or vegetable
Fruits and vegetables are two of the most important food groups in the pyramid. These foods contain the highest amount of vitamins and minerals. High amounts of fruits and vegetables in the diet have been suggested with a lots of beneficial effects on your health such as decreased blood pressure, better management of blood sugar and diabetes and decreased risk of stroke and heart disease. Another thing to note about fruits and vegetables is that each color of vegetable or fruit contains different types of beneficial nutrients.


    5) Limit junk foods and processed foods
Most health experts suggested that limits the intake of processed foods or junk foods. Although they may not be the most nutritious choice, the occasional treat is appropriate. Choose wisely when you're eating more pastry items. Foods like chips, crackers, sweetened beverages, frozen meals, fast food, pastries or sweets shouldn't be a daily occurrence. There are plenty of foods that are still considered very healthy and nutritious yet are still considered "processed.". Some items like canned vegetables, frozen vegetables and fruit, pre washed lettuce and salad greens, and dairy products are ok to take.


    6) Drink adequate amounts of water
If you do not consume enough water each day, you will run the risk of being dehydratedMost adults need at least eight 8-oz glasses of hydrating fluids daily. If you are physically active or perspire a lot during the day or during physical activity, you'll need to replace the fluid lost in addition to your regular daily intake. Consume caffeine-free and sugar-free beverages, as they are the healthiest and most hydrating drinks. Dehydration has many negative side effects like from very minimal issues to more serious health effects. Some includes fatigue, mental fogginess, headaches, mood swings, kidney stones and urinary tract infections. so do drink lots of water everyday okay? ;)
