Useful info and health tips
Do not skip meals!
When you skip meals your metabolism slows down, and you are not burning calories as you should. Your body thinks that you are starving so when you eat again, your body stores away more than usual resulting in more fat
Healthy diets contain a variety of foods
In general, we should include a range of nutritious foods and eat
• plenty of bread and cereals (particularly wholegrain), fruit, vegetables, and legumes (such as chickpeas, lentils, and red kidney beans)
• low-salt foods, and use salt sparingly
• small amounts of foods that contain added sugars
• Reduced-fat milk and other dairy products.
• It is also important to drink an adequate amount of water.
