My blog post today, as you can see, is about tricks to healthy eating. I find that most people tend to eat less healthily when it's nearly winter time. From psychology, I learnt about Seasonal Affective Disorder; this is a depression that occurs during late autumn and winter. I'm not going to get to the science behind it but eating healthily surely helps. If you suffer through this or know anyone who does or just simply want to start eating more healthy foods then stay and continue reading.
Healthy eating isn't all about salads and smoothies. There are many diets to choose from. Finding the right one for you may take trial and error.
1. Eat breakfast every day
If you ever hear your parents tell you that breakfast is the most important meal of the day,
they are not lying. I can't stress how important it is for you to get those nutrients as soon as
you wake up. Believe it or not, not eating breakfast everyday is considered unhealthy
for your body.
2. Stay hydrated
You might find that drinking lots of water helps get rid of your spots however, you can kill two
birds with one stone. How? Because water helps your skin do its job. It helps flush out waste and
bacteria because our digestive system needs water to function properly. It helps prevent headaches,
and make you less cranky. Research has found that dehydration can actually affect your mood
negatively.
3. Always pair your dinner or breakfast with a salad
Now I know some of you don't like vegetables but, pairing it with your meal can help change the
taste of the vegetables to your liking simply because your meal would obviously have a taste
you like. Tada! Trick your taste buds and next thing you know, it'll become a habit.
4. Cut down on sugar and use Stevia
Instead of sugar, you can use stevia. The leaves of the stevia plant are made to a stevia sweetener.
Stevia doesn't affect your blood sugar so it won't give you sugar high. If not, you can
always use honey.
5. Blindfold whilst eating
You must have read that subtitle and thought 'What?' Your eyes can deceive you. Looking at
your plate, you feel as though you're not full until your plate is empty but if you blindfold
yourself and trust your stomach, your stomach will tell you when to stop eating.
