I find it amusing how so many people turn eating correctly into a big project.
The truth is, eating right and staying healthy is really very simple.
The hard part, unfortunately, is the discipline involved with doing it.
Most folks can't help but take that extra slice of pizza or that extra slice of chocolate cake.
Snacks run rampant because they don't eat enough decent food during the day and for the most part, people just don't have a schedule for eating.
Well, this article is going to provide you with some simple tips that will not only keep you in good health, but keep you from gaining that extra weight that you don't need.
Probably the most important tip you will ever get is to eat a good breakfast.
Yes, breakfast is the most important meal of the day for many reasons.
The most important is that it gives you the energy you need to make it through your morning, especially if you're at school or work.
But just as important is that it keeps you from getting hungry before lunch and grabbing for those doughnuts at the office filled with empty calories.
By starting the day with a good breakfast, you are one-third of the way through a good eating day.
The next thing you want to do is eat small meals throughout the day.
Rather than eat three big meals, if you eat five smaller meals, you will find that you don't get hungry throughout the day and reduce your risk of indigestion and other stomach problems.
In order to do the five meal plan, you need to have a snack between lunch and dinner and then another snack after dinner.
These snacks should be healthy ones consisting of fruit or whole grain snack.
Try to stay away from snacks with refined sugar.
Refined sugar is one of the worst things you can put in your body.
Another important thing to keep in mind is that when you eat your meals, you want to make sure that you don't combine foods that don't digest together.
The reason certain foods don't digest together is because different enzymes digest different foods and these enzymes can't be combined in your stomach.
One of the most important things to keep away from is eating fruit with any other type of food.
Fruit digests with absolutely nothing else.
And don't eat sweet fruit with sour fruit.
This will cause serious digestive problems.
There's more to good eating that I'll be covering in future articles.
