A good diet is a matter of common sense — eat less and eat fresh. There are a lot more farmers markets popping up around many cities. It’s not hard to find fresh and #healthy foods. Taking your time to buy and fix your meals instead of eating out will help you to maintain your weight and health. Get cooking! Prepare meals ahead of time. It helps a lot when you don’t know what to eat, and stops you from eating junk.
Good nutrition is one of the keys to good health. You can improve your nutrition by regularly eating foods that have a lot of vitamins and minerals in them, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low- or nonfat dairy.
