Most of us would want to loose some of those extra calories, but are probably too busy to do so. Here are 10 simple ways you can keep that body in shape.
EAT FRUITS & VEGETABLES: I’m pretty sure you have heard this a lot of times. Healthy diets rich in fruits and vegetables may reduce the risk of cancer and other chronic diseases as well as provide essential vitamins, minerals and fibre you need for good health.
DRINK MILK:Calcium, Phosphorous, Vitamin D required for building your bones, teeth and muscles are contained in milk. Try getting any milk that has low fat, because it breaks down easily.
GET MORE VITAMIN D: Asides the early morning sun, you can also get it from beef, liver, cheese, egg yolk and certain types of mushroom. Vitamin D is required to prevent and treat rickets.
EAT IRON ENRICHED FOODS: Green plantain is said to be one of the highest sources of iron, anytime you feel like eating plantain, make sure its the green type.
FIBER FOODS: The secret so many people don’t know is that any food rich in fiber doesn’t store in the body, it breaks down easily, that way you won’t have anything stored anywhere, that could lead to excess calories.
DRINK COFFEE OR TEA: The Catechins (antioxidants) in green tea extract increases the body’s ability to burn fat as fuel.
EAT BREAKFAST: This is the most important meal of the day, this meal could keep you going at least for up to 12 hours without you feeling hungry, that way you won’t have to think of eating any junk or heavy food that won’t break down easily.
EXERCISE: Make it your goal to exercise for at least one hour a day.
GET MORE SLEEP: It is advised to go to bed on time, precisely by 10.00pm
Above all DON’T STARVE: You can’t loose weight by avoiding meals.
With all these you should be loosing a lot of calories before the end of the month!
