Not always all that we eat, we really need, and even more useful. To understand what we really need for the vital activity of the body, consider five basic principles, following which, it is possible to get closer to the ideal of "tasty and healthy food".
- First, the simpler the food, the healthier it is. That is, the most useful are cereals on the water, vegetable soups, with a minimum set of spices, boiled or stewed meat (fish, chicken), a variety of vegetables, both raw and boiled or stewed, fruits and herbs. Moreover, you should not abuse meat, once a day is enough, and sometimes you can do without fish and meat dishes altogether. The work of the intestines will only improve from this.
- Secondly, it is necessary to take into account, if possible, the compatibility of different products. Greens are combined with almost all products. Fruits and vegetables containing starch are preferably eaten separately. Meat, chicken, fish - only with "green" salads. Dairy and fermented milk products are also best eaten separately from all others.
- Thirdly, you need to correctly distribute the amount of food and its calorie content throughout the day. It is good to start the morning with the most high-calorie foods in order to have time to use all the calories in the day. Various cereals, muesli, salads are suitable for breakfast. For lunch - any meat or fish dish with herbs or soup. Fermented milk products are the best for dinner, and fruits for all kinds of "snacks". You need to determine for yourself the portion necessary for saturation, and then try not to exceed the "norm" you have established.
- Fourth, sweets and pastries should be kept to a minimum. And if you really wanted to, then eat in the morning and in small quantities.
- And lastly, it would be good not to eat at night, well, or to stop eating at least two hours before bedtime, in order to allow the body to digest all the daily supplies and sleep well.
After listening to these easy-to-follow advice, you will soon be able to confidently say that you are eating right.
