Most people are guilty of committing this crime. They eat fast food, don't exercise and stick to our unhealthy habits until ailments come knocking our door. While the only ray of sunshine in the dark for that kind of people is that it's'Better late than never', the subset that is still in the nascent stage of unhealthy habits are the people I wish to address today. Ok, I am going to be very frank with Y'all. It time to change your habits for good. While taking an enormous step might be intimidating as first, let's start by taking baby steps and including some healthy food items in your diet
Here's a list of food items that you should include in your diet for better health and a fruitful life
- Blueberry
Widely regarded as one of the most antioxidant-rich food items, blueberry helps prevent cancer, diabetes, and all age-related memory changes. Rich in fiber and vitamins A and C, it also helps to boost up cardiovascular health. With the cases of deaths resulting from heart diseases on the rise, Blueberry is the recommendation you should pick up if you're taking only one from the list
- Almonds
The list would be incomplete without a nut, right? With a plethora of options to choose from when it comes to nuts, almonds undoubtedly top the list. High in fiber and protein, almonds should be a part of your everyday diet
- Yogurt
One of the most nutritional food items, yogurt is a must-have for people who workout. Compared to regular yogurt, Greek yogurt has less natural sugar lactose and more protein. A single cup of yogurt contains almost 25% of your daily requirement of calcium, resulting in better health and more lost body fat.
- Apple
Haven't we all heard famous saying'An apple a day keeps a doctor away'? Yes, we have but we still don't take it as seriously as we should. One of the biggest mistakes people make while eating apples is that they cut off the peels. Cutting off the peels is a big no because much of apple’s antioxidant awesomeness is in the peel. Apart from keeping the doctor away from you, apples also make sure diabetes, cancer and strokes stay away from you.
- Spinach
Spinach is a rich source of plant-based omega-3s and folate, which helps reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and osteoporosis. Too much jargon right? Well, in simple words if you want a Popeye-esque physique, spinach should be a part of your dietary plans
