I could be wrong here but it seems every day a new diet or dieting technique is advocated to ensure a healthy life. But what I thought might be useful would be to put together a list of simple tips of foods and cooking techniques to avoid. I've called it "Seven Deadly Sins Diets Tips for Anti-Aging". A lot of this info you'll doubtless know but the fact you know it so often means you become blase` about it and totally ignore it.
1. Avoid eating manufactured foods:- You body was not designed to live on pastries, cookies and candies none of which offer any significant food value or benefit. Keep to natural foods which are made from whole foods (a potato not potato chips) . A grilled chicken breast and not a chicken burger. If you think how food is prepared and where it comes from before cooking it (an how it's cooked) you won't go far wrong
2.Eat little and often do not stuff yourself: - Your digestive system is designed to digest food slowly so the bigger your meals the longer it takes to digest it is healthy to snack with the right foods between meals. In fact five well spaced out meals a day is much healthier and will help you live longer.
3. Stop eating so many refined foods:- If you suffer from bloating or constipation as you get older this is probably due to lack of fiber in your diet. Fiber helps the digestive tract work more effeciently and gets rid of waste which if retained can lead to illness, tiredness and lethargy and longer term health issues.
4. Not drinking enough water:- Surely everyone in the world knows we should drink water it's told to every person at medicals, it's on tv and everywhere we turn we hear importance of drinking water. But still we refuse to listen choosing to drink soda's, beer, coffee instead, none of these quench the thirst or hydrate the body as well as water and they all contain harmful chemicals which can effect our body faster. If you must drink these make sure you take a glass of water with them every time.
5.Avoid those bad fats: Some people don't know there are different types of fat.So I came up with an almost fool proof way of checking if fat is good or bad. If a fat originally comes from animal or is manufactured it is not as good for you as fat from a plant is. This means margarines are lower in saturated fat which is better for you than butter. Dont Forget:- Any fat will make you put on weight when used to excess so when planing you diet keep fats under control.
6.Combine food groups and balance meals:- If you use this simple technique you'll find it works wonders. Always combine simple carbs with more complex carbs and make them part of a balanced meal. If you are going to eat fruits, juices, pasta, potatoes and desserts make sure you balance them as part of meal containing protein and fats. If having pasta have a simple tomato sauce with herbs and spices if you like with a grilled chicken breast.
7.Prevent sugar highs and sugar lows:- You can harm your body with sugar high and lows. These are refered to as hypoglycemia. Many people believe this is just a problem for diabetics, but it known that these constant dramatic changes in blood sugar can lead to serious health problems including aging the body faster. This can be quite easily prevented by combining foods which are fast release with foods which take longer to breakdown by the body.
Few people understand that their diet and even how they prepare food can lengthen or shorten their lives and the best advice I can give is to avoid these 7 deadly sins of aging and you won't go to far wrong.
