December 2007 - Healthy Eating in the New Year
As the New Year approaches it's the time many of us start thinking about how we can improve on our eating habits. I'm going to share with you ten of my favourite tips to get you started.
- Choose attractive foods. Remember we start "eating" with our eyes.
- Eat meals at the same time each day.
- Allow a minimum of 3 hours between meals.
- Drink plenty of non-sparkling water between meals and sip warm water with meals only if thirsty.
- Eat warm organic freshly-prepared local seasonal food. Avoid reheating food if possible.
- Make lunch (between 12 and 2pm) the main meal of the day.
- Eat dinner early, around 7pm, especially if it contains raw food.
- Eat light and warm meals in the evening.
- Eat a variety of food and in moderation.
- Put aside enough time to prepare and eat food calmly. Observe how you feel after each meal. What is your energy like?
