Tips for a Healthy Diet

Get off the diet treadmill and get real with this no-nonsense guide to good eating habits. :)

First, if you're not taking breakfast, change this habit. Breakfast is considered the most important meal of the day. After 12-14 hours without food, your blood sugar is low, you're hungry and your brain, and the rest of your body, needs refueling to start the day. Eat something for a few few mornings to get accustomed to the experience.

Second, try new fruit or vegetable every week. Concentrate on dark-green or richly coloured produce, which is rich in vitamins, minerals and plant chemicals that are linked to lower risk of cancer and heart disease and to slow down the aging process.
