We have to eat right to prevent or delay chronic diseases.
Here are 6 tips:
1. Include more whole grains in your daily diet.
2. Get your essential vitamins, minerals and fibre with 2 servings of fruits and vegetables.
3. Build strong bones and lower risk of osteoporosis with daily doses of low fat dairy products.
4. Reduce "bad" cholesterol by replacing saturated fats with monounsaturated fats and polysaturated fats.
5. Cut down on salt, use more natural seasonings such as juices, herbs and spices.
6. Check food labels to make sure you get your necessary nutrients.
A healthy diet gives a healthy you!
