In today’s 21st century, healthy eating is not an option but a need. The Covid-19 pandemic has proved why eating healthy food is crucial for strong immunity.
And guess what? Eating healthy has got easier and yummier than ever! Don’t believe us? Try our Thai Meal Bowl and Buddha Bowl, deliciously made at Nutridock kitchen.
In today’s blog, we will be discussing five simple tips to get started with healthy eating.
1) Include sufficient protein in your diet:
Protein is an important macronutrient for the human body. It is satiating in nature which reduces appetite and hunger levels. This eventually prevents you from crossing the threshold of your daily calorie intake. Also, it can curb your late-night snacking habits.
Protein plays a major role in increasing muscle mass and body strength. So foods like tofu, tempeh, soybean, chickpeas, and lentils can be a great source of veg protein. Foods like chicken, fish, and eggs are the top non-vegetarian protein-rich sources.
And if you are not in a mood to cook but still want to have something protein-filled then don’t worry. Nutridock will come to your rescue! Experience our Forbidden Rice Bowl today.
2) Fruits and Veggies:
An apple a day keeps the doctor away! And yes it has been the truth for years.
Fruit and veggies are rich in micronutrients like vitamins, minerals, and plant chemicals. These are important to keep regulating bodily processes. Importantly, they possess disease-fighting phytochemicals that massively improve human immunity.
It is recommended that an individual should at least consume five portions or 80 grams of fruits and vegetables in their meals throughout the day.
So why not grab a Tropical fruit salad bowl from Nutridock?
3) Limit fat and sugar intake:
When was the last time you enjoyed a big fat fancy donut? Yes sure, it must have been amazing! But truth be told, these fat and sugar foodstuffs are better if kept at low-consumption. Bakery products, fried food, chocolates, sugary drinks, and fast foods are calorie-dense since they contain tremendous amounts of saturated fat and sugar.
They are not good for your health. Rather you can opt for healthier fat alternatives like small proportions of olive oil or ghee in your diet.
But this doesn’t mean you should never eat bakery or sweet foodstuffs in your whole life! Nutridock has low fat sugar free desserts like Raw Brownie
Bliss and Chia seeds Coconut Pudding. With these desserts, you can still satisfy your sweet tooth without even worrying about calories.
4) Moderate Salt Intake:
High salt intake is the number one reason for high blood pressure. This leads to heart diseases and heart strokes. There are specific recommendations by nutritionists to consume a standard amount of salt in a day.
For adults, it is around 6 grams of salt in a day and for children, it should be less than 6 grams. Make sure you have the right amount of intake.
So beware the next time when you ask “Namak Kaha Hai?”
5) Drink Water:
Water! The zero-calorie holy fluid!
It is not surprising that drinking water can bring magical changes in your body. WHO recommends drinking 6-8 glasses of water in a day. Water ensures that your body is not dehydrated and also helps in the digestion of food.
Drinking fluids is a great way to detox your body and also your skin. So keep sipping it throughout the day, especially in the summer season.
So these were the five simple tips to follow for healthy eating habits. Following them consistently will improve your health in all aspects.
