Good Morning Loves,
This week we had a healthy living conference at my office and I learned some interesting facts about eating healthy, being active and living well. Of course whenever I hear some great information I have to share with you.
Use these tips to help get your body bikini ready this summer…
Interesting facts about eating healthy
- Frozen veggies are just as good as fresh fruits and veggies, canned should be a last resort
- Eggs don’t have as much omega 3 as they advertise
- We need: fruits, veggies, dairy, grains and protein
- We don’t need: fat, sugar and salt
- 1 kiwi has your total daily vitamin C requirement
- Eat fruits with a fiber source to avoid a sugar high – and then crash
Learning to be active
- We need 30 minutes of exercise every day to maintain our weight
- Sitting at a desk is as bad for your health as smoking a pack of cigarettes a day
- It’s ok to drink 2-3 cups of coffee per day – we should drink caffeine before working out
- 60% of people in Canada are overweight
- 25% of Canadians are obese
Start living well
- Exercising helps bones retains calcium and prevents osteoporosis
- Fiber makes you feel full – it helps your digestion and lowers cholesterol
- Only 30% of our daily calorie intake should come from fat
- It takes 20 minutes for the stomach to tell the brain it’s full – that’s why we should eat slowly
What is your personal healthy living motto?
Love always,
