Spring Into a Healthier You Springtime is a great time to focus on your health, and that can start with what’s on your plate. Nutritious meals can help prevent and manage illness. Eating well supports your heart, brain, energy levels, and overall well-being. Here are some simple tips to get started:
1. Add more fruits and vegetables to your meals. Aim to fill half your plate with vegetables and fruits each meal. Look for fresh or frozen produce, or canned varieties low in added sugar and salt. 2. Choose whole grains like brown rice and whole wheat bread. Read nutrition labels to check the saturated fat and sugar content. “Low-fat” doesn’t always mean it’s healthier - packaged foods with this label are often high in sugar. 3. Limit salt and added sugars. Cooking at home can help you better control your ingredients. 4. Don’t forget fiber. Fiber from whole grains, vegetables, and fruits can help support digestion and lower cholesterol. Here’s to a healthier, happier you – one bite at a time!
