Water is a really great thing it's very good for your whole body.
Water, tea (unsweetened or sweetened only w/ a bit of honey), and lots of fruits and veggies.
Sounds great lemon water is my choice I drink about 8 glasses a day I also find that olive oil, honey are also good for you.
i drink milk, hot chocolate all mix with oats, eat biscuits or bread in the morning, skip lunch, eat light dinner. Hardly had any meat in a week, maybe 3x a week...
I see your trying to eat some what healthy I stop drinking cows milk I'm drinking almond milk now and coconut milk and my body feels better for it.
Single-malt, Top-shelf tequila, vodka-distilled 3 or more times, avocados, vitamin pills, bacon, coffee (black) tea (iced of course) and tonic water (to prevent malaria)
Everything else I ingest is purely for enjoyment,
Well I read a article yesterday about a 90 year old woman drinks for shots of tequila a day and she thinks it's the reason she is in good health....I guess your living a full life.
I like to eat a variety of foods, but I find that certain foods don't appeal to me as they did before. Chicken is probably the dominant meat in my diet although I do eat burgers. I'm not a vegetarian but I do enjoy veggies. I do enjoy many kinds of foods when the opportunity presents itself.
As for what I drink it's mostly teas and coffee, lots of water. Occaissionally I will drink a soda knowing how bad it is. There is one ingredient that seems to prevail in many drinks and snacks, including bread and coffee creamers it's high fructose corn syrup. I always try to find products that I like that do not contain it. I fail to understand why it is used in so many foods when it is not the most healthy thing to be consuming.
I know it is a difficult challenge for many including myself, but if one could refrain from consuming sugar whatever the form one's health would dramatically change.
Sugar is a thing I'm started to leave alone all together I miss it in my sweet tea but I have started replacing it with seltzer water with added strawberries and lemons or limes.
My preferred food and drink to stay healthy is fruits, nuts, vegetables and water. My preference is bananas, apples, oranges, tomatoes, onions and avocados.
I see your trying to eat healthy and that's a good thing I take my hat off to you for that one...Keep up the good work.
As a nutritionist by trade, I say that eating and drinking all natural, non-processed, foods in balance (i.e., protein, carbohydrates, and fats) is the best way to stay healthy.
Proteins may include lean beef, skinless chicken and turkey breast, pork tenderloin, fish (coldwater is the best), egg whites, low-fat cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, tofu, and tempeh.
Carbohydrates include vegetables, fruits, beans, tubers, and whole grains. Green and colorful veggies should be your top source. Two to three fruit servings per day is plenty. Bean, tubers, and whole grains are starchy; therefore, they should be limited around workout times. If you're trying to lose weight, they should only be consumed after a strenuous workout twice per week for fastest fat loss.
Essential fatty acids are important for all cells in your body. Try including Omega-3 fats in your diet as they are proven the healthiest. This includes coldwater fish such as salmon, tuna, mackerel, herring, and sardines. Flaxseeds, flax seed oil, chia seeds, walnuts, avocados, and egg yolk are also good sources. Though olive oil is an Omega-9, it is healthy too. Coconut oil also has been proven to be beneficial for health.
By including all these healthy foods in your diet (while eliminating pre-packaged, processed, and refined foods), you eliminate bodily inflammation which is the source of all disease.
All I can say is awesome It's really hard to do these this but I know people that are doing it so I know it's something that can be done you should turn your facts into a hub you are giving good information.
Thanks, Handicapped Chef. I do have several hubs on the topic.
I think MaximumFatLoss said it well! We try to eat mostly healthy foods, although there is always room for improvement. We start out the morning with a smoothie made from almonds soaked overnight, oatmeal, papaya, banana, mango or any other fruit that's in season. We try to eat either beans and quinoa or some other protein and a salad for lunch. Dinner is something light, often a fruit salad and yogurt.
We try to drink plenty of water and include lots of colorful fruits and veggies in our diet. We eat almost no processed foods. Everything is made from scratch. Fast food and processed foods are hard to find in the areas where we've lived in Peru, so that makes it harder to cheat! : )
Yes she sad it all real good information but I see you and your family is trying to be very healthy also and I know that it is hard but you have your family on the right track
Beverages:
1) Water- free and healthy, no calories
2) Black coffee- brewed from fresh ground beans, loaded with antioxidants, almost no calories.
3) Decaf coffee- you can drink it all day and night, almost no calories
Foods:
1) Bananas- about 25 cents each, tons of potassium
2) Peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat- complete protein, cheap
3) Turkey burger with jalepenos, no sauce- low fat and tasty

I've heard a lot lately about eating "raw" foods and how healthy it is supposed to be. Does anyone know about this and how you'd begin?

What's you first drink in the morning? Tea, coffee, juice or maybe something else? And why?I am a huge tea drinker (English upbringing) but my first drink of the day is always a coffee. I think it's just habit as it is quick and easy using my Keurig one-cup coffee maker. How...
