Welcome to Health Flava Savouring the true essence of life.
- Try to lower your junk food consumption little by little and in a month or so you will frown upon junk foods.
- Eat before you shop so you can focus on your grocery list without having any unnecessary cravings.
- Non-fat yogurt can make a great snack, and its healthy bacteria can help with various stomach problems.
- Cravings for junk food usually stop after about 2 weeks of eating healthy.
- When you think you’re craving for unhealthy foods, it may mean your body needs something with nutrients and vitamins, so eat healthier alternatives like fruits or vegetables to stop that unhealthy craving.
- With labels such as “fat free” or “sugar free” there are more chemicals. Most of the time, the simpler the ingredients list, the healthier the food is. For example, juicing your own orange juice is always healthier than store bought orange juice. Even if its labeled fat free on the container. If you make your juice at home, you know exactly what is in your juice and not relying on a label to be truthful.
- Consider eating fruit and vegetable salads instead of fast foods.
- Carry water with you at all times. Try to drink water in place of soft drinks and other flavored beverages. A good rule of thumb is to drink half your body weight in ounces per day.
- Make sure there isn’t a lot of unhealthy food in your house that can tempt you. Give or throw away the foods you shouldn’t eat. You can’t eat what you don’t have! And don’t buy those thrown away again!
- Try chewing more. This will give your body more time to digest the food and absorb nutrients.
