Eating and Living

 

1) Try eat a well balanced diet of fruit, vegetables, wholemeal pasta, rice and bread, low fat dairy and lean meat daily. Aim to eat fruit separately or at least 30 mins before or after food, so to avoid acidity overload and discomfort.

2) Aim to relax whilst eating your food to aid digestion.

3) You don’t need to crowd your life with unrealistic health and fitness goals - rather enjoy being active, having fun with your family.

4) Steam rather than boil your vegetables to maintain vitamins and nutrients needed.

5) Drink plenty of water. Avoid tap water which is full of sodium and impurities which poison your system. Aim to drink filtered water.

6) Slow down your intake of coffee and tea which reduces your iron intake and increases acidity within your system. Too much acidity within causes arthritis, osteoporosis and weak uncomfortable bone structure.

7) To heighten your fitness levels, aim to increase your heart rate through walking, running, cleaning at least 20 minutes a day.

8) You do not have to eat breakfast in the morning. If you are still full from the previous night why overcrowd your digestive system with more food? An overcrowded tummy will cause discomfort and future illness.

9) Reduce amount of meat eaten daily. Aim for 20% meat to 80% vegetables, fruit, pasta and rice eaten daily. This will reduce amount of fat consumed.

10) Increase amount of raw food in your daily diet. This will encourage healthy enzymes in your eating, which will aid digestion of food.
