7 Rules for Healthy Eating

 

 

 

 

Most of you know that I’m in Italy for the week with my StrongFirst family and then a nice little vacation. Again, I don’t plan on depriving myself while on vacation but I do plan on following these rules while I’m here (the same rules I follow at home!)

So, without further ado, here are my 7 rules for healthy eating:

1. Drink water! Half of your body weight in ounces per day is your absolute minimum! I also suggest drinking a full glass of water prior to each meal to prevent over-eating in addition to drinking a glass as soon as you wake up.

2. Focus on eating mostly proteins, vegetables, good fats, some fruit, and good-quality starches (like potatoes of any kind). Keep sugar to a minimum!

3. Never eat in a hurry. Do your best to always eat slowly and in a relaxed state.

4. Never eat until you’re stuffed – stopping when you feel 80% full is key!

5. Choose high-quality organic foods anytime possible.

6. Eat only when you’re actually physically hungry, not because it’s “meal time.”

7. Supplement your diet with high-quality products.

There you have it!

Which of these do you do well?

Where is there room for improvement?
