LTH
Eating healthy foods isn't just about serious dieting, avoiding your favorite treats or becoming model-thin. Proper nutrition is a way of life that allows you to be as mentally and physically healthy as possible. There is no one ideal nutritional plan for everyone, but choosing a healthy eating plan that works for you will offer you some major benefits. Some of the benefits include:
INCREASED ENERGY
Increased energy levels are the immediate benefits of switching to a healthy diet. Eliminating excess fats, sugars and refined carbohydrates helps prevent blood sugar fluctuations. This allows you to maintain steady blood sugar and constant energy levels as a result. In addition, eating a healthy breakfast helps keep you energized throughout the day. BRAIN HEALTH
Proper nutrition increases blood flow to your brain, protecting brain cells and helping to prevent Alzheimers disease. WEIGHT CONTROL
To prevent weight gain, you must eat no more calories than you burn off each day. For weight loss, you must eat fewer calories than your body builds daily. Healthy and nutrient dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean proteins, typically contain fewer calories than fast food meals and sweets. PREVENTING DISEASE
Keeping your weight down reduces your risk of obesity-related conditions such as type-2 diabetes, clogged arteries and thyroid dysfunction. Good nutrition can prevent diseases such as heart attacks, strokes, osteoporosis and some cancers. It can help control and treat chronic conditions such as high blood pressure and celiac disease.
