These simple and straightforward healthy eating and weight loss tips are not only  for individuals but also for those who work to help others stay healthy : parents, caretakers, teachers and community leaders to list a few. Maintaining optimum weight and health is definitely linked to healthy eating. 






TIPS: What to Eat
  • Whole grains (whole wheat, steel cut oats, brown rice, quinoa) 
  • Vegetables (a colorful variety—not potatoes) 
  • Whole fruits (not fruit juices) 
  • Nuts, seeds, beans, organic eggs, goat's sheep's yoghurt, cheeses, low fat whey cheeses, and other healthful sources of protein (fish, poultry, game)
  • Plant oils (olive and other vegetable oils)
 

Drink water or other beverages that are naturally calorie-free such as caffeine free herbal teas.




Avoid these foods and drinks: 

NOTE:  All processed foods and drinks should make up NO MORE than 2% of your daily diet.   

  • Sugar-sweetened beverages (soda, fruit drinks, sports drinks)
  • Fruit juice (no more than a small amount per day)
  • Refined grains (white bread, white rice, white pasta) and sweets - the brighter and more colourful the packaging is ... the more you have to avoid it ! If you can't pronounce the ingredients - again the more processed it is and the more harmful it is to your body.
  • Potatoes (baked or fried)
  • Red meat (beef, pork, lamb) and processed meats (salami, ham, bacon, sausage)
  • Other highly processed foods, such as fast food

If you are aware of any health problem which may compromise your general health, it is important to seek treatment. A Health and Wellness Counselor may help you, to bring you back in balance and to good health through, detoxing, healthy eating and living, create a proper diet suited for your condition, advise natural remedies, herbs, wholefood supplements and organic cosmetics.
