Reducing sugar intake is crucial for health. Start by reading food labels and choosing products with less added sugars. Next, swap sugary drinks for water, herbal teas, or sparkling water with a splash of juice.

Opt for fresh fruits instead of sweets for snacks. Cook at home to control sugar amounts in meals. Gradually decrease sugar in recipes, or use alternatives like stevia or monk fruit. Be mindful of hidden sugars in sauces, dressings, and packaged foods.

Remember that small changes can lead to significant health benefits over time 🥰.

BIASAKAN UNTUK KURANG GULA!

Tahukah anda, pengambilan gula yang berlebihan setiap hari boleh menyebabkan pengambilan kalori yang berlebihan. Pengambilan kalori harian yang berlebihan dalam jangkamasa yang panjang boleh meningkatkan berat badan dan seterusnya menyebabkan obesiti dan pelbagai penyakit tidak berjangkit.

Oleh itu, kawal pengambilan gula dari sekarang dan sentiasa awasi gula tersembunyi dalam makanan dan minuman. Biasakan dan latih lidah anda dengan kurang manis. Jangan biarkan manisnya gula menghancurkan kesihatan anda perlahan-lahan. Bertindak sekarang sebelum terlambat!

Normal blood pressure is characterized by a systolic reading below 130 mmHg and a diastolic reading below 85 mmHg. Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is indicated by persistently elevated levels of 140 mmHg or higher for systolic pressure, and/or 90 mmHg or higher for diastolic pressure. However, managing blood pressure can often be achieved through healthy habits like a balanced diet and regular physical activity. Below are some tips to help you maintain healthy blood pressure levels.

𝗗𝗢'𝗦
✅ Eat more vegetables and fruits.
✅ Sit less.
✅ Be more physically active, which can include walking, running, swimming, dancing or activities that build strength, like lifting weights.

Beri galakkan pada anak-anak anda untuk meminum air kosong ketika di sekolah. Air kosong adalah pilihan yang lebih baik untuk pembelajaran anak kerana:

✅Tiada kalori
✅Tiada gula tambahan
✅Bantu meningkatkan fokus dan daya ingat dalam pembelajaran
✅Mengawal suhu badan dan menyokong

Cara galakkan anak minum air kosong yang mencukupi iaitu 6 sehingga 8 gelas sehari termasuklah:
🌟Guna botol air yang menarik
🌟Tambah hirisan buah sebagai perasa semulajadi
🌟Ajar anak untuk minum air mengikut jadual

Ingat! Jangan lupa pastikan anak anda membawa air ketika ke sekolah. Mak ayah juga kena jadi role model untuk anak-anak dan jadikan amalan minum air kosong sebagai rutin harian.

Jangan lupa untuk bawa bekal air kosong ke sekolah 😊

Did you know there's a significant difference between nutrient dense and calorie dense foods?

Nutrient dense foods are like powerhouse packages. They give us essential vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that our bodies need to thrive. Think colorful fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and nuts. These foods provide a lot of nutrition without piling on a lot of calories.

On the other hand, calorie dense foods might be tasty, but they're often high in sugars, fats, and empty calories. Think of fried foods, sugary snacks, and processed treats. Enjoying these foods occasionally is fine, but too much can lead to weight gain and health problems.

By choosing more nutrient dense foods, we're giving our bodies the fuel they need to function well and stay strong. It's about finding a balance that works for us and our health.

Let's make informed choices together for a healthier, happier life.

PADAT KALORI ATAU PADAT NUTRIEN?

Seorang pesakit obesiti mengeluh dengan berkata "Makan sikit sahaja, tapi berat tak turun-turun..kenapa?"

Persoalannya, apakah makanan yang "sikit" tu?

Mungkin makanan itu ialah makanan yang "padat kalori". Makanan "padat kalori" sering dianggap makanan yang ringan namun begitu jumlah tenaga atau kalorinya adalah tinggi. Jumlah tenaga yang tinggi di dalam makanan "padat kalori" ini kebanyakannya adalah daripada gula, minyak/lemak yang tinggi.

Apa p**a makanan padat nutrien? Makanan padat nutrien adalah makanan yang mengandungi nilai nutrien seperti vitamin, serat, mineral yang tinggi. Ia biasanya lebih mengenyangkan dan mempunyai kalori yang mungkin lebih rendah daripada makanan "padat kalori" jika dibandingkan dengan berat yang sama.

Jadi, untuk mereka yang obesiti, untuk membantu menurunkan berat badan, kenali makanan padat kalori & padat nutrien, pilihlah pilihan yang lebih sihat!

Amidst the festive cheer of Raya delights,
let's savor Kuih Raya, our taste buds ignite.
But remember, moderation is key,
For a balanced celebration, happy and free!

ADA APA DALAM KUIH RAYA?

Kuih raya ni boleh membuatkan kita makan tak boleh berhenti. Seakan ketagih dibuatnya. Tahu-tahu dah licin sebalang kuih raya tanpa kita sedari.

Jadi, kesedaran dan keazaman yang tinggi diperlukan supaya kita tak makan secara berlebihan semasa musim perayaan ini. Ingat, kebanyakan biskut dan kuih raya tinggi kandungan kalori. Jadi, jangan pelik jika berat badan kita yang dah turun semasa bulan Ramadan haritu naik mendadak semula.
